Took this pic of 2 random bicyclists on the BST north of the Avenues on Sunday at 8:30 PM. On the off chance they're on here I thought they might like it.

Flying Dog is GTG!

Just noticed this on my Strava feed. Folks were riding it this weekend. It's going to be nice to get away from Corner Canyon for a change.

Kid trailer rental in Moab

Hi, I'll be visiting Moab in May and looking for a bike and trailer rental for kids. Any suggestion on who to ask? I've asked already to a couple of bike rental companies there with no luck so far.

Any recommendations in Davis County for my 6 year old?

Hey guys. I would love to take my 6 year old onto more trials. We've currently ridden at Kaysville East Mountain Wilderness Park and even that is a bit much for him as it is really rocky (he had a blast but fell hard trying to turn on loose rocks). I know it's a tall ask but I'm really just looking for some dirt walking paths that he can ride on his bike to get his confidence up.

Mtb conveyance in Moab

Visiting in may with a group of four, and we need a vehicle that can transport 4 bikes. Is there a clear best option for renting vehicles with this in mind? We’ll originate from SLC airport. Options we’re considering:

  • Conventional rentals (would probably need a pickup truck, and then would have to find a rack or tailgate cover in Moab, e.g. from the shop where we rent the bikes if that’s possible?)
  • Turo (might have more bike specific accessories)
  • outdoorsy (get a camper, something with tons of room)

Any others? What do savvy folks do?

Moab recomendations?

My wife and I have not been to Moab since before the pandemic. Are there any new trails we shouldn't miss?

Student Survey- Gender and Mountain Biking

Hi all! I teach high school in Colorado, and I have a senior writing her senior thesis about gender in mountain biking communities. She has a very brief survey she is using to gather data, and I'm hoping some of you would be willing to take her survey. It is completely anonymous, and should take no more than 5 minutes. Thanks so much!

Best resort to buy season pass for a beginner-intermediate rider

Pretty much just the title.

I just moved to SLC from Colorado. I'm decent at trail riding and have done downhill riding two times, once at Copper Mountain and once at Keystone (both CO) before. I'd like to buy a season pass somewhere and get as much riding as I can. What do you all recommend?

Thanks

New Bike -- Gravel or Mountain

Hi all! I'm here deliberating between two choices on a new bike. My main riding area would be the shoreline trail, PC trails (mid mountain, pinecone, armstrong), and the Crest.

- downcountry/xc bike full suspension

- Titanium gravel bike with both fat 650B and 700cc wheels

What are your thoughts between the two? Can one get away with a gravel bike on these trails enjoyably?

Cheers

Anyone suspect trails will be groomed for a fat ride Monday?

Would love to spend the day off of work putting some miles on the trail. Looking at round valley, Millcreek, MoPi and similar. Any hot tips appreciated.

Preferred bike servicer

Wondering what shops folks would recommend for MTB service here in N UT, SLC area specifically? I've had mixed fortune with several.

Zion or Moab for a chill, scenic rental ride?

I'm going on a road trip next month and we'll be going through Utah, stopping in Zion and Moab, before heading down to Grand Canyon. We'll be on a tight schedule and only have time for one day of moutain biking. I'm wondering should we do it in Zion or Moab?

What I'm looking for: Somewhere where we can rent enduro or trail bikes near the trails and somewhere that includes easy options. I'm an advanced rider but I'll be with an intermediate and 2 beginners. As such, we're more inclined towards great scenery than great riding for this one.

Man I love Deer Valley

It was also the first downhill ride for my Stumpy Evo, I can’t say enough about this bike. It’s amazing.
