I am considering relocating to Park City, Utah. Can anyone give me any insight into the riding scene there, both road and mountain? Lots of trails, good roads to ride? Bike shops? Groups and organizations?

Thanks in advance.

Loads of country roads to ride on your road bike. Some good climbs, but you're already way up there in altitude so you might be better off driving 30m down the canyon to SLC so you can ride up the other canyons (Little Cottonwood, Big Cottonwood, Millcreek, Emigration, City Creek). Sometimes the shoulders leave a bit to be desired though. Overall, you'll be happy.

I don't mtn bike anymore, but I understand that it's crazy good up there in and around the ski resorts during the off season.
