What we’re about
Utah Mountain Biking! We're a group of mountain bikers of all levels based out of the greater Salt Lake City and Wasatch Back areas. We usually post 1-2 weekly rides, with sometimes 5 or more rides during the summer. Our rides are are broken up in to four levels (novice, beginner, intermediate and advanced) and include casual rides, epic rides, skills days at bike parks, shuttled downhill rides, lift-serviced bike park days, bikepacking and night rides. We also have camping trips to places further away. After our ride we usually hangout at a restaurant or have beer and snacks at the trailhead.
About Our Rides
Before signing up for a ride please read the description. We usually put the level of the ride (Novice, Beginner, Intermediate or Advanced) in the title. Sometimes the ride may have both a technical level and an aerobic level. If you cannot make the ride, please update the RSVP.
Dues
We ask for an optional $5 annual dues to help cover our Meetup site fees and camping/social events. Please help the group by giving the dues to one of the group organizers.

Disclaimer:
Mountain biking and associated activities are inherently dangerous and often located in inherently dangerous terrain with potential consequences of participating being injury up to and including death. All participants in the group assume responsibility for themselves in the face of these risks, and should not participate in any rides that they could not complete on their own in case of emergency. This includes taking responsibility for finding your own way in case you get lost and/or separated from the group, as well as carrying sufficient food/water for such an eventuality and also not assuming that group members will be able to provide you with assistance.
Even if the event leader is a professional guide or instructor, all rides and events are informal and at your own risk.
In order to ensure an open and active SLCMTB group with eager organizers and event organizers who feel safeguarded against unwarranted legal recourse when posting or leading events, we require that all SLCMTB members participating in events agree to the following terms:
By RSVPing YES to an event, you hereby FULLY RELEASE, INDEMNIFY AND HOLD HARMLESS SLCMTB, its
organizers, and event organizers from any and all liability, claims, demands, and causes of action whatsoever for any loss, damage, injury up to and including death, illness or harm of any kind and nature arising from or related in any way to your activities with SLCMTB, including mountain biking and any related activities.

Make sure your bike is in good working condition and you have basic repair kit with you for possible trailside repairs if needed. If this is your first-time riding in Moab, desert riding has lots of big rocks it can be exhausting and fun so be prepared. Anything you are not comfortable riding can be walked. This ride will be a slow pace if the group wants to session features that will be an option as well. You are ultimately responsible for getting yourself back safely so I would also recommend trailforks or something with local maps to help you navigate. We will try to keep the group together as much as possible. E-Bikes are not allowed on these specific trails.
