Okay, got the kitchen pass to spend first part of October in Fruita / GJ / Moab. So I'm deep into planning. Me and a couple friends from A-town are coming to invade.
I live in Austin TX so don't have a lot of direct knowledge of the trails out there. Been to Moab twice and loved it, but want to expand and see some more new stuff.
Love technical trails, long LONG rides are just peachy ( if it goes 6-8 hours I'm okay with that ).
So, any suggestions?
( he he he )
Desert stuff - natch, Horsethief and nearby trails sounds fun. Bookcliffs too. Joes's Ridge sounds like a hoot.
What about higher elevation stuff - I've no clue what's "reasonable" to go do if I'm staying in Fruita.
And yes, 'Scary and 'Speedster you're welcome ( and expected ) to chime in.
[ One thing that drives me nutz is spending 2-3 hours in the mornings on a bike vaca with the group going "where today?" ... I will NOT have that this year as it's MY vaca.
