It looked like an amazing place to ride, with a rolling sandstone ridgeline and ledges that looked like perfect jumps. We flew up to a red rock ridge with 1,000-foot drops on all sides. On day two we wanted to ride somewhere we’d never ridden before. His backflip ended up missing my head by only three feet, but somehow he landed it. Travis wanted to do a backflip and followed me into a jump he had never hit before. Riding down we found so many awesome little hits and jumps. Riding up trails that would normally take hours only took a fraction of the time on E-bikes.
It was so awesome to see everyone riding together. Grabbing all the E-bikes, we took off as a group. It was cool to see the support from the local MTB scene, but we couldn’t wait to start riding. Word must have gotten out that Travis was flying in because all the local MTB pros bombarded our camp spot. It was cool to see their genuine excitement and get to share a place I grew up riding. When Travis and Lyn-z flew in, they got to see Utah from above. With everyone on board and the helicopter ready to go, this would be a trip of a lifetime. With such a tight window, I called in a favor with my helicopter-pilot friend York: "Would you fly Travis and Lyn-z down to where we’d be riding?" He was psyched for that and more.
LYN Z PASTRANA FREE
When I called Travis, he said they only had two days free in December. Travis and Lyn-z Pastrana, along with Dusty and Tarah Wygle, are some of the busiest people I know. The only problem was everyone’s schedule. With the new line of Giant and Liv E-mountain bikes released, I thought there could be an epic “couples weekend” in the making.
Growing up in Utah, I've always wanted to put a big mountain bike trip together down in Southern Utah with all my Nitro Circus friends.
