Was down in Moab for a week of riding, I was totally blown away by the scenery.
The trails were way more techy than I ever imagined. The weather was cool and a bit rainy which was fine because when the sun was out its hot as hell on the trails. Three riders, no mechanicals, no injuries. Falling there on the trails is not an option, would result in something mangled for sure.
Day 1- Slick Rock
Day 2- Hymasa, Rock Stacker, Ahab
Day 3- Porcupine Ridge
Day 4- Getaway, Bull Run Loop
Day 5- Lower Ahab ( Rest Day ).
Day 6- Mag 7 route- Getaway, Bull Run, Great Escape, Gold bar Rim, Portal. This was by far the best ride although the Portal Trail is super sketchy, sections where you have to walk your bike. Next time will finish with Poison Spider.
We didn't get to do the Whole Enchilada trail due to the weather was cold and it was snowing up there. Which isn't uncommon this time of year.
Instead of doing two solid days in the car on the way home we did a 14 hour haul to Bend Oregon. Did a day of riding there and then only 8 hours home. Ahh the brew pubs of Bend….
BTW there is no decent beer or brew pubs in Moab. Colorado should annex Moab then it would be perfect.
People always ask me what's the phenomenon
