I headed down to Moab on Columbus Day with the guys.
Dug and Brandon made videos.
We carpooled down in the Mad Dog van. Then transferred to the shuttle van for the ride up Sand Flats Road. A storm a week or so ago had put snow in the LaSals so the Whole Enchilada was out, but we could still hit UPS, LPS and Porcupine Rim.

The views into Castle Valley never get old.

I didn't ride very fast or aggressively so I was always last. Kinda bugged me, but when I'm riding my bike instead of working I can't be too upset. UPS and LPS were new to me and it had been years since I last rode Porcupine - the trail has changed some.
We still had some daylight so we rode Pipe Dream. I liked it but it's a butt kicker. Riding from town it has a lot of steep ups. I was cramping so I bailed when we got to the south end and rode back on the road. They told me it was easier the other direction so I should have taken the trail back.
Finished the trip with a burger at Rays. Good times.

I didn't know UPS and LPS were new to you. I think they are almost the best part.
That was my first time riding UPS and LPS. I agree, very good single-track, liked them both.
