Biking – Roads & Trails

My nine year old son is ready to start getting new parts and fixing up his bicycle.  I think he is getting big enough that we may be investing in a better bike for him and start going on some rougher trails.

Recently a client asked about a home in Wasatch County for sale and whether it backed up to BLM or Forest land.  They want to be able to go hiking and bike riding out their back door.  Utah is a great place to find such property on which to build a home or find an existing home with close or back door access to biking trails.

One of the trails that I haven’t done for quite awhile and I need to put it on my Summer to-do list with my family, that even my six year old son can handle and will love, is the Provo Canyon Parkway.  The scenery is absolutely beautiful.  The bike path is paved the entire way and if you start at the top end of the Parkway, it is pretty much downhill all the way.

Here is a great website for mountain bike trails in Utah:  http://www.singletracktreks.com/wasatchArea.jsp

I don’t do the road biking, but I want to put in a plug for what looks like a great new peddle for either mountain or road bikes, if you can support it please do:  https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/2099765898/the-infinity-pedal?ref=card

Get your bikes ready!
