| Ok, just for kicks, who would be up for a Uutah Moab trip sometime? Who know when that means, maybe a month, or maybe 4 months away. |

a poseur friend and i were debating this agenda a few weeks ago:
leave home
camp: Trail Canyon
hike: Trail Canyon
hotel: Central Moab
bike: Top of The World
hotel: Central Moab
hike: Hidden Valley
bike: Hidden Canyon
camp: Goblin Valley
bike: The Swell

HEY...I am a poseur...I just usually hang out in the parking lot and polish my bike up, telling everybody how good I am...can I come???
You two are pretty gung-ho. I am too lazy, I would probably just get one hotel for the whole time. Since I am so feminine, I need a shower after each ride. Do the campsites that you camp at have showers? |

| i will stay in hotels, no doubt, I have a free hotel and I can hook us up. I will go anytime and I will go when ever. Hotel for free. I am drinking right now and am a little confused. I will go whenever and will get us a few rooms free in Moab. Archway inn is the free hotel I can get. Tell me when and I will arrange it. I am not the camper type. |

That's a pretty nice place. I've stayed there 3 times. Man, we should really get this thing going. How's June? May "may" be a little early for me. |

Archway Inn huh? I thought that I stayed there but I actually stayed at the Adventure Inn across from Poison Spider Bikes.
I am down for a trip soon, as long as it doesn't fall on a test day for me. Only thing is, a June trip would mean a really early rise because of the heat. I would still be down, but getting up early to beat the heat would be a necessity to me, otherwise, we will shrivel and die. :naughty: |

| I am down for a Moab trip soon. One week that I wouldn't be available is the week of May 17th. Considering that there isn't a huge function in Moab, the hotel should be good to go. The heat would be crazy in June, but hey I am down for some night rides. |

Just out of curiousity, how do you guys plan on affording the cost of gas to drive down there? Gas will easily be over $3 a gallon probably within the next month. Thats a real bummer because it makes me and my wife really have to think twice before planning a road trip for mtn bike rides. What are your thoughts?

DAMMIT, did you have to remind me of these crazy gas prices?? I am hearing rumors of $4 dollars a gallon in the summer. YIKES! |

Can you do early rides? I mean, the temp is cool, and the trails are barren. That's what I did when I was there, and the whole week was 100+ in May. |
