Day 7 Moab-Slickrock

Slickrock, we will let the pictures do the talking.









Day 6 Moab Utah- Porcupine Rim


Today was an epic day. 3000 ft of climbing and 50 km of riding. The ride from town was long and kept going up and up. But the payoff was well worth it. The views, the descents and the choice technical bits were all we hope they could be. The weather looked like it was going to turn nasty but we seemed to ride between it all. In the end we finished mid afternoon and then went onto town to checkout the scene.

Day 5 Fruita-Bookcliff Routes

A less intense day but equally fun.
Kessels Run, Western Zip, Zippity, Chutes and Ladders, Prime Cut(a awesome finish)
After breaking camp we headed off to Moab via the scenic route.


Day 4 Fruita Col-Kokopelli Trails

Today was all about riding. Rustlers, Horsetheif Bench, Mary's Loop, Steve's Loop, Lions Loop, Mack Ridge and More Fun. Epic to say the least.
5 hrs later we were all wiped.

Day 3 Idaho Falls to Fruita


An early start from the rest stop and we were rolling knowing that we wold be riding by 3. After navigating through Salt Lake City we hit the mountains only to emerge on the other side in the desert.
Before we hit Fruita and make camp a ride was in order. Bartlett Wash was first on our list. A mini version of slick rock this trail was a good start to our riding.

Day 2 Calgary to Idaho Falls

Ok now we are getting somewhere. We picked up the RV this a.m. She is a butte. Lots of room and we managed to get 8 riders, their bikes and all the gear in successfully.

Day 1 Edmonton to Calgary

Not much to say here just a 3 hr haul to Cowtown.
