If you get one, you'd better get your butt out and get some training in asap. You don't want to the Slicrock trail or Porcupine as your first ride. You need get comfortable with shifting, climbing, braking on steeps, etc.

Take it over to green mountain and ride, ride, ride. There's all sort of trails from easy (flat trail around the perimater) to tough/steep single track.

That would be a cake walk on a bike. The slickrock trail has much steep grades. You'll see by the road rash on Shaggy's face.

Throw the bike in the back of an SUT for the ride up. Then Shaggy will have all the joy of riding down w/o the PITA work of riding up!

Besides, this way you'll have cameras at the top AND the bottom!

Hmmm...that could work. Should make for some good video if nothing else.

Two words Shaggy:

Good Luck!

Seriously. Have a great time. Back when I was biking a lot I had always wanted to ride Moab but never did. When I go now, it will be behind the wheel of a Hummer , but not this trip.
