Southern Utah is the place to be for the next few months! What areas do you have in mind?

I was in Moab in March of this year. I did a little mountain biking and would love to return to do some road riding. It is quite a lovely place. Thanks for sharing the video.

I did not enjoy the ride out of Moab, the first attempt was met with a 40mph headwind. We gave up 2 hours and 4 miles down the road, the next attempt was successfuly when the winds changed for our favor. Other then that, the road was nice and traffic was never an issue. I really wish I would have researched our escape from Moab better. If I could have done it again I would have got a shuttle from one of the many bike shops on main drag to the highest logging road in the la sals and saved us 4 days of un-nesscesary desert suffering.
Mark another one for lessons learned on the road!
