Short Notice & Informal
A couple of us are headed to Moab to do a week of riding some of the classic trails. We will likely be focused mostly on Adventur Bikes but are taking the 300 cc dirt bikes to mix things up a bit.
We will be staying in the desert in tents. We would normally RV down there but we are headed down light for a short stay.
In addition to spending time in Willow Springs, we will also be staying a few days in the Green River area.
If anybody wants to join us, we would happily be your neighbour. If our riding plans match up, that 's great too!

Suggested from GPS Kevin
We asked our friend GPS Kevin where he thinks we should take the adventure bikes. Her'e what he said.
As for adventure bike ride I would recommend:
- White Rim First: Scenic and a long day
- Kane Canyon & Chicken Corners: Mostly dirt roads, some sand. You're inside the grandiose canyons. Out and back. Chicken corner you will always remember.
- Canyon Rims and Boxcar: Easy: Good amount of scenic pavement, Spectacular View Points
- LaSal Mountain Loop: Check to see if the passes are still snowed in. (Mix between Canyons and Mountains)
- Lockhart Basin Trail: One of my favorites: Can be a little rough on a big adventure bike. Amazing tour above the Colorado river.
