    Road to Collins Canyon trailhead (aka Gulch Creek Road

    re: Road from UT 276 to Collins Canyon trailhead (aka Gulch Creek Road)

    Does anyone know if the LAST 5 miles is rideable in a city bicycle (electric assist) ? (tires are 35-622 700x35c 28*1.375*1.375) (tire sizing on bikes is nuts)

    Wife and I need a shuttle between entrance and exit points.

    I have never ridden one of those bikes, but the first half of the road can be wash-boarded and the last few miles of the road has some bumpy slickrock that is still suitable for a 2wd.
    Utah is a very special and unique place. There is no where else like it on earth. Please take care of it and keep the remaining wild areas in pristine condition. The world will be a better place if you do.

    I'm good with that :-).

    Soft sand with substantial depth would not be good. Rocky roads can't be much worse than city streets in Oakland, CA. And my seat post has a "Thudbuster" brand shock absorber (parallelogram) which helps out a lot.
