E-bikes: We cannot shuttle e-bikes, even without the battery. E-bikes and pedal assist bicycles are not allowed on Forest Service lands. With a special permit that must be locally obtained, e-bikes are allowed on BLM lands but currently, we are not equipped to transport them. Please do not try to bring one on the shuttle. We cannot load them and your shuttle fees will not be reimbursed. They are allowed at Dead Horse State Park, the Slickrock Trail, Sovereign Trail and on most BLM jeep roads in the area.

Please Note:
We provide transportation only to the above trailheads. We do not offer a guided service. All riders are responsible for themselves while on the trail. Prior to the ride, it is the responsibility of all riders to familiarize themselves with the trail and weather conditions, to bring their own maps or other route finding devices, to pack proper food, water and clothing, and ensure they have the proper equipment and ability level for the terrain. Some of these trails start high in elevation and end up down in the desert. This means it can be cold, really cold at top and hot, really hot, at the end of the ride in one day. KNOW WHAT YOU ARE GETTING INTO!

EPIC DESERT RIDE
The Magnificent 7
Mag 7 is a series of trails linked together into one spectacular traverse. Trails include a variation of Getaway, Bull Run, Arth's Corner, Great Escape, Little Canyon, Gold Bar Rim, and Portal. This point-to-point ride has it all, flowy fast singletrack, good technical climbing, a ledgy traverse, and a sweet challenging descent down the Portal to finish off the day.
OR you could do a Mag 5 and then exit out the Gemini Bridges Road and link up with the Moab Brand Trails area. This is a great intermediate version of the Mag 7 and is still a point to point ride.
After the ride, you can either ride back to town or you can follow us with your car in the morning and park at the bottom of the Portal, at Courthouse Wash parking area just north of the Colorado River or at the Moab Brands Trail area depending on your exit.
We generally depart twice daily at 8:30 and 10:30. Our schedule is subject to change so please check with us when you are planning your ride. We are not limited to these times so please call if you have a larger group and wish to go earlier or later.

Custom Bike Shuttles
To drive to a trailhead and then recoup your vehicles later it can take from 1.5 to 3 hours. Why not kick back and have a beverage after your great ride? Leave all the transportation hassles to us. Plus, it sucks to get all the way back to your cars and realize you have forgotten the keys!
Please call for availability.
