I know it is kind of early but since I now work in SLC I figure I can meet up with you SLC boys to ride on the weekly rides this year. I was wondering what days would be best this year and would like to get things rolling pretty soon cause we will be able to hit the lower stuff pretty quick. Also maybe a Saturday ride a month or something like that. Whats your thoughts on that.

I would be down for The Saturday rides. I work nights so I don't think I could make weekday night rides

I ride almost every saturday morning in the summer and then hit the lake in the afternoon, it would be cool if we could swap a slc sat and then a northern saturday or else just plan some cool rides. I want to get out more on the SLC trails, but dont want the traffic?

It is Tuesdays. We typically wait for the time change, it is early this year so we get a jump on the season! :2thumbs: I have my winter layer of FAT so we usually start off slow but I'll catch up to you youngsters soon :moses:

I think that any night other than friday night would work for me, I am also down for getting a night ride together and going as a group, I think that would be great and I have an extra light to lend to someone.

If Tuesdays are the SLC night then what about Thursdays? Or Hell even tuesday for the North Guys and then just rotate back and forth from a SLC ride to a Ogden area ride? I am game for whatever.

I lead a group ride every other Thur. evening for Utah Rocky Mtn. Bikers up American Fork Canyon. Anyone who wants to come along is welcome. We will ride at the slowest riders pace. This is a great opportunity to ride the Ridge Trail 157 trail system if you haven't before. This trail is usually rideable by the end of May, first of June.

Tallsteve,

Keep us informed on the rides and the times, I would love to go and ride down there and get to know a few more trails. What time do you usually start your rides? I hear that trail system down there is pretty cool.

I'll keep you informed. We usually meet at the mouth of the canyon at around 6:00 pm. Once you ride it once with someone who knows the trails you can then do it on your own after that. Still one of my favorite rides in the state.

I've been tossing around the idea of starting a weekly ride on the BST in the Layton/Kaysville area. Probably Thursday nights....any interest in that??? It would be cool to have an informal group to ride with, I seem to ride it alone most of the time.

Maybe even a Layton/Kaysville/Ogden group? Switch it up each week between areas maybe?

So, what do you guys think? How's the Bonneville Shoreline looking? I assume that's one of the first trails to dry out.

It should be pretty much dried out with occasional muddy sections this week. I am going to ride it this wed and see what shape it is in and then I will let you kow, or better yet you can join me if you want to?

Rode the section in Layton/Kaysville between the East Mtn Wilderness and Fernwood Dr. Mostly in great shape, but the north facing slopes still have some slushy snow and a lot of mud. Had to walk a few of the hills to keep from putting down huge ruts. Should be good to go very soon if the weather stays this warm.

Death...a friend and I are planning to ride Thursday nights either in Farmington Canyon or on the BST in Fruit Heights. Not sure when we'll start, but you'd be more than welcome to join us whenever. Email me at beaumiller at yahoo dot com

Where at in Farmington Canyon do you ride?

Tumbleweed

That is a good question Sombeech....I've only been a couple times with my friend and just kind of follow him. Generally though...we ride up the asphalt path from Main St (north of Farmington) and then hit a mix of jeep trails and singletrack that runs north. You can make it up behind the Rifle Range eventually and hook up with the BST from there if you want. Not a bad loop for a change of pace...but I definitely like the BST better for good flow.
