Anyone here from Utah?
I'm on a business trip in Utah. I couldn't arrange to transport my bike here on time, so I'm going to have bike withdrawals. Just thought I'd look in here to see anything Utah related ... it would seem to be a great area to ride in.

Lots of great riding. Are you in the Salt Lake City area? If you have time to head to Park City and want to rent a bike, Jans Mountain Outfitters https://www.jans.com/biking.html has mountain and road bike rentals. If you are looking for something closer to downtown, Canyon Sports also has rentals https://www.canyonsports.com/utah_ren..._locations.php There is also a Century going on this coming Saturday around Utah Lake that is pretty fun https://www.bbtc.net/
If you need info on anything else, feel free to post up. Have fun.

Cool. I did find a place that rents, Bingham Cyclery. However, as luck would have it, I caught a cold while here. Not sure if it had to do with change of climate, or stuffiness of the plane ride ... thanks for the info.
Dang, if I'd known there was a century going on this weekend, I would have brought my Seven. Pretty flat century ... 1358 feet ... but looks like it would be a fun ride.

Thanks locko and others both here and on the Moab Century thread. Great website! Just what I need with my son and best girl having just moved to SLC. I hope to get in a good ride each time we visit. MapMyRide has lots of good routes too.
