Day 2
Gemini Bridges... Nestled in the heart of Utah's Canyonlands, this
trail is a mixture of fire road, slickrock, and amazing scenery!
It’s a great intro ride that will acclimate you to the area’s unique
terrain. A killer descent leads you to amazing views from the top of
the twin sandstone formations that give this trail it's name.
(20miles) Ride into the unique town of Moab, and become acquainted
with your new home base for the week!Or...The Sovereign Singletrack
is one of Moab's newest trails. This
challenging narrow singletrack trail combines dirt,
open rock, ledges, climbs, and views. This ride has
a good sampling of every type of riding -- fast
singletrack, technical sections, sand digs, stiff
climbs and open slickrock. It is one of Moab's
finest! |

Day 3
Hurrah Pass... This fun little jaunt (33miles) through red rock
country takes you to one of the most spectacular viewpoints in the
area, Anticline Overlook, high above the Colorado River.
Or.... Amasa Back. A wild downhill, technical singletrack, and
1000 ft climbs take you to stunning views high above the Colorado
River. Later, we’ll roast marshmallows at a campfire and gaze at the
starry night from our perch above Moab at Slickrock Campground just a 1/4
mile from tomorrow’s trail... |

Slickrock Trail...The Greek Deities had Olympus, and the gods of
mountain biking must surely dwell here. Twelve miles of
uninterrupted sticky sandstone waves for your fat tires. This ride

deserved microbrews at the one and only Eddie McStiff’s!

Day 7
Porcupine Rim... Ride this local epic with dynamic views of the La
Sal Mountains and Castle Rock. Locals think this is the best ride in
town...we agree! Like a phenomenal roller coaster, this trail climbs
3 miles and summits at the canyon rim, then gives way to miles and
miles of hair raising downhill! We’ll take an evening ride with John
on his unique Unimog to the best spot in Moab to watch the sunset,
high above the Colorado River, as the end of our adventure draws
near. ($30)
