Members of Shaker Cycling and other friends are planning another bike touring trip tot he west. This time we are headed to southwestern Utah.

Six friends of Ed Fine converge on Moab Utah for a week of road and mountain biking. The plan is eat, ride, eat, explore, eat, and sleep with road riding during the first 4 days and mountain biking the last two. We also plan to explore areas south of Moab (Comb Ridge/Cedar Mesa) on foot after the riding is done.

The group consists of:

Moab and Fruita Mountain Biking

Six cyclists from the Shaker Cycling group (Scott Smith, Ed Fine, Irv Bergrin, Chris Bilowic, Jeff Cox, and Chris Pierce) in Shaker Heights, Ohio set out at 4:30 pm on October 13 to take on the slickrock and singletrack of Moab, Utah and Fruita, Colorado. We will fly to Salt Lake City where we will rent a van and drive over the mountains to spend the night at a hotel in Price, Utah, home of the Utah Raptor. The next morning we will push on to Moab where we will rent mountian bikes and ride for 3 to 4 days. From there, we will move on to Fruita and rent new bikes to ride the highly touted singletrack there. Assuming we are not lost in the desert, we will return home to Cleveland on October 21. This blog will document our exploits.
