A 2 Wheel Adventure...Riding the Price and the Swell

mph

Expedition Leader
My family left me for a few weeks...What to do? I called a former teaching colleague and we headed south. Everyone has heard of Moab and Fruita. But, what about Price and the San Rafael Swell? The BLM has allowed some of the sagebrush and mesas to be trail friendly. Trails are popping up all over. I ride a single speed, so I like to ride trails that are fast, twisty, and not with too many punishing climbs. The area around Price and the Swell fits the bill in dramatic fashion. Load the bikes and go...Here are few pictures that captured the weekend.

Always fun to pull out the slackline! Placed it closer to the edge for a little pucker factor.
