Wish I was coming. Not only is it Father's day but my husband has to go in for a medical procedure. It would not be nice of me to abandon him this week
. I'm going to Oregon in July. Holding out hope for Utah in August (though it will be hot).

Looks like I'm going to have the opportunity for a couple of days in the Moab area in late July. Right now I'm planning to ride Porcupine and Slick Rock, my dream trails! I know it will be hot, but I'll be fresh off doing a lot of heat training and racing the Badwater Ultramarathon so what heat I find in Moab will probably not compare to what I'd just been through in Death Valley! Not sure of the specific dates but sometime week of July 25th probably... I can't wait!

Lucky you. Just go early in the morning with the sunrise. In the afternoon you can do a rafting trip down Green River. Moab is awesome. I've been going there since I was a baby (back before they had traffic lights). I have a few relatives left there. Have fun. Are you going with anyone?

Well, it looks lke my daughter is going to U of U, yeah!
So, I'll be in SLC the weekend of August 19, 20, 21 to help her move in and get settled. Of course she'll be busy, so I'm planning to bring a muni and ride. Anyone going to be around for some riding, preferrably back in the wood where it's cool and shady? I've done some nice riding up above Logan, near the Beaver, wouldn't mind doing some single track up one of the canyons, little or big cottonwood... |

Great!

I'm still not sure of my plans for those days in August, but there's a pretty good chance I'll be around and looking to hit the trails. If I'm here, you can count on me joining you. Send me a PM and I'll send you my direct contact info. Speaking of riding with "outtatowners," I just had the pleasure of riding with KayCeeTheAcey from Maine, who was out West on a field Geology course. We had fun on the Pipeline Trail up Millcreek Canyon. (I'll post some photos when I get a chance.) Kaycee is an amazing rider. It was great following him and watching him turn the trail into a natural trials / flatland run -- hopping onto rocks, then 180-ing off to backwards riding with another 180 to go forward, one-footing, and even coasting -- all on trail! "Natty-trials" at its finest. I can only dream of riding at that level some day. (Better starting working on some new tricks.) Riding with Kaycee inspired me to get up the nerve to ride my KH29 (w/ Maxxis Ardent 29x2.4) on the same trail this morning. Whatta blast! 100% fast, furious, FUN. At any rate, get in touch, and if I'm around, we'll hit some of the high country trails in the Wasatch, either on the Salt Lake side or the Park City side, where it's a lot cooler. Also, I've been wanting to do some "lift-served" downhill rides at some of the local areas for a while. Let me know if you might like to give that a try as well. Cheers, Bert |

Bert, for sure I'll give you a hollar, hopefully I'll have my 26 guni by them, otherwise I'll pack the Oregon.
Having just got back from two weeks riding at high elevationin CO, I'm thinking I'd like a little shade ![]() Are there "treed" trails in the canyons that are rideable, at least one way? |

Husband survived. Now just waiting for lab results of the biopsy. It's most likely to be nothing. I'm going to Oregon last week in July. I'm hoping to make Utah early August before school starts up. I have to be home by August 13
.

Riding in Utah...
Keep us posted y'all. Let us know if/when you're headed this way.
And for all you Utah locals that ride but are hiding in the woodwork -- get in touch with me and/or Tom & let's ride. (Tom, check your PMs.) Cheers, Bert |
