Moab Mountain MADNESS!
by Administrator on Jul.02, 2009, under News From The Bike Shop
While we have had bouts of remarkably cooler weather in the desert, for the most part it is still damn hot … but but BUT… THE MOUNTAINS ARE ON LIKE DONKEY KONG! We have been spending all of our free time in the cool solace of the La Sal mountains. Just a stones throw(25 minutes to pine trees) up the road from Moab, the mountains offer up to 40 degrees cooler temperatures and some sick singletrack. There are nearly limitless options for looping different trails together and ending up at your camp at the end of the day. The dirt is prime and the forest service has been working hard to clean up all of the trails(including a large section of the trans la sal trail). Clif, from Ride With Respect, has been signing a lot of new trails on the back side of the mountains. Don’t forget your hiking boots and fishing pole because you can bag a peak or two and catch your dinner after your ride!
