Moab for 5 days!! what to ride? please help
Hello, and good day to all!!!
I'm planning a Moab trip in October, maybe end of Sept. Might stay in a motel?
Or a cabin.
We will be renting bikes, always wanted to buy a Tracer, But renting will be just fine.
So, Slickrock trail, Poison Spider, Kokopelli, Bartletts wash, Porcupine rim, Amasa, Sovereign
What can (should) we do while we are there?
2 expert riders ( I have 18 yrs of MTB exp, and still learning!) But I do belive we are ready.
I must ride red rock.
We are good for 6- 10 hrs a day for a least 3 or 4 days. Hopefully.
Any local guides for hire, or just hook up with a tour? I've been reading up at utahmountainbiking.com ...... lots o' info!
I am Very Excited. I thank you all for any insight into a great week.
:thumbsup:

I don't know if you have got the news yet, but you might want to try out the Pivot Firebird for a day of riding Hazard Down. The cost
(http://www.poisonspiderbicycles.com/rentals.html) to rent is the same as the Tracer and gives you a little more travel and a superior ride up and downhill.

Your right, I think I'll try a Pivot!
Any guess what the weather in the end of September will be? ( how long is a piece of string?)
Where is a good place for a clean room?
Yep, I have been reading at utahmountainbiking.com for a few years, and know which trails the web says I should ride..... I love human knowledge.
looking for quick insight.
So rent a van, rent bikes at PSpider, Ride, Ride,drink, Ride,Ride, drink, repeat.
what does the White Rim 100 miles in a day take?
10 MPH avg should be real easy.
thanks again.

I do't know anything about Moab since I am from Sedona (http://forums.mtbr.com/showthread.php?t=511629&highlight=sedona+maybe+a+better). But the trails to ride are the Blue Dot to the Gold Bar Rim trail to the Portal, Hazard down to the Colorado, Amassa Back to Pot Hole to Rock Stacker to Jackson's, the White Rim in day and Repeat.
Weather should be perfect probably around 85.3 degrees in Moab and 73.2 degrees in the LaSals.
