My sister hadn't been on a mountain bike in a few years and just picked up a new-to-her bike that's nicer than anything she's had in the past. We did a couple very chill Round Valley laps yesterday and the trails were in good shape and the weather was great. She's pretty stoked on riding after some not so great experiences in the past.
Random drift. Anybody have any xc/am 27.5 tires kicking around gathering dust? My wife decided this is the trip to get back on the MTB after 2 seasons off. (We have a 1 yo so I can’t blame her too much.) We’re staying in riverton.
Yep. Riverton is a hike for me (Sugarhouse, closer to down town) but I was just going through my stash and found some used 27.5 maxxis, one ardent and I forget the other, but in rideable condition but definitely not new. Yours if you want them. pm me for digits

Free in Millcreek, need to be gone by Friday evening. I will be doing a run to Sandy/CH late AM on Friday.

Posting here before I post a general FS thread. I have a pair of Shimano DX M647 Clipless pedals, these things are a cult classic I bought probably in 2015 to have, I think I rode them once, but have no use for them. Great shape. $50?

So basically ride up trail from return to road. Head up summit road, look at snow, hit Kruzer and then poach a bike park run on the way out.
Hilarious and sad landowner pissing match happening at H-Rock.

Does anyone know if Summit at solitude is just closed because of snow and conditions, or are they shutting down access to honeycomb, silver etc and planning to keep it closed? I havn't been super optimistic about thier approach to uphill traffic with the bike park going in. Guessing honeycomb is close and hoping to get up there soon and Brighton is a slog!
I have seen no restrictions other then the old trails inside the bike park boundary.
Awesome! Summit is listed as closed on their daily conditions report but sounds like it might be just temporary conditions then. Thanks.
Honeycomb was "closed" last year but I rode it, people saw me, and didn't say a thing. I assumed that it was just because they had heavy equipment out for trailing building, so it would help them in a legal sense (if something were to ever happen). But that's a justification I created to make the climb worth it. No way I was riding back down raptor road.
You'd have a hard time seeing through your tears if they made you ride back down that fucker. Although I am always shocked at the number of people I see riding down when I'm slogging up. Good way to burn brake pads I guess...Quote:

I have no clue what the daily conditions said a few days ago but nothing was physically posted. There was one small snow patch to cross so they hadn't driven anything up yet.Quote:

That’s great to hear. Looking forward to heading up this coming week. Thanks!
Are any of you Reverb lovers/whisperers that would want mine? Allegedly new as of fall 2023, just started squishing/sagging with probably a dozen rides on it. Replacing with a V2 Tellis because I just don't want to fuck with it. I believe it's a 175mm 31.6mm.
Looking for some alpine-esque rides in/around the Wasatch. The past couple of summers I've been increasingly making my way up to honeycomb/silver fork/days fork and have really started appreciating those types of rides. Long, steep climbs & raw, natural descents. Is there anything else I should be aware of, perhaps up toward Ogden or down toward Provo? I also understand if people aren't willing to share since these are precious places - but figured I'd ask.
Buddy of mine has been up there a couple times, up Raptor Road the whole way, no issues. Based on his speed I'd say no snow left but maybe a tree down?Quote:

North Skyline above Ogden is the most scenic bike trail in northern Utah, also a moto route so it can get a little chewed up but its got a good mix of smooth fast and chunk. Also Catherines Pass at Alta and lots of stuff at Brighton that is above my ability.Quote:
