Has any body done a shuttle up to Willard Peak and bike over to Ben Lomand and then down to the parking lot on the Divide? This looks promising but a hell of shuttle drive. Any info would be appreciated.

I have driven my truck to the top of Willard Basin and hiked to the top of Willard Peak. It's a beautiful drive, but a long one.
If any of you guys are actually crazy enough to do this I would offer my help by shuttling you guys up to Inspiration Point. I am not crazy enough to ride it but I'll contribute by driving up there. It would be a good excuse for me to get back up there.

I'm afraid the shuttle would be much too long for the bike ride. I estimate about an hour for the shuttle one way.
A much better shuttle in the area is dropping off the biker at the Green Ponds TH near Snowbasin, and picking them up at the bottom of Wheeler Creek (pineview dam) I'd say 10 minutes drive one way, and maybe 6 miles of biking?
That is a great ride. Don't let anyone tell you otherwise. I've only done it in the other direction from what you are wanting to do. If you want to do it I would be more than happy to go along.
As a bonus, there are a ton of mountain goats in the rocks and cliffs above Willard just south of Inspiration Point. They're pretty impressive.
