- Our forthcoming Peaks & Plateaus route is a diverse bikepacking loop in Utah that follows a scenic mix of roads and trails. It meanders between mesa tops, through valley bottoms, along sandstone canyons, and past snow-capped ranges that leave riders in awe of the regional geography. In this video, Neil recounts his recent three-day journey on route with friends, highlighting the many sights along the way...

Love it!! I’m in for the next one
Hayduke lives. What a great place for any kind of adventure
Awesome! Would love to see more trip recaps like this.
Me too! Would love to join y’all next time! Looked like a sweet ride 🤩
Awesome sceneries for a bike trip
Sometimes those “underestimated” or under-researched adventures turn into some of the best memories! Looked awesome! Loved the hill climb attempt! 😝
for sure, it really made for a great day, and story! haha, Josh gave it all he could!
Yeah, I’m not jealous. Okay yes I am. Looks amazing.
I gotta say, what does clock time matter when you're bikepacking? Heck, I may not even know what day of the week it is.
Scenic ride in some nice country.
I guess what I’m saying is, I would rather sleep in and pedal later than wake up early and stop pedaling by mid-afternoon. But, you have a point, once you are out there long enough you adapt to the whatever and whenever.
Nice video! Did not know Chuck was a bikepacker. I've seen him and his band, Dopapod, a bunch of times
Chuck is the best, I have yet to see them play, but it’s high on my list.
Steel bender is brutal lol, I took a 150mm travel enduro bike on it a couple years ago.
Can't wait to ride this! Thanks for posting! Great video!
So good
Great video and looks like a pretty cool route - would love to see the full route. Several yrs ago I did a loop that included Kane Creek and Steel bender - loved that, but need to get out to Lockhart Basin and check that out. Endless options around Moab!
Great video! Thanks!
Man... Utah is just something else...
I have a friend who moved out there a while back and I think a visit is long overdue.
Incredible looking route, guys.
Man, that looks like a GREAT trip! Thanks for sharing!!!
More videos like these please.
10-4
Wonderful! Transarizona route for me in two and 1/2 weeks. So excited!! Keep on biking 🍻
Have fun!
I gotta adopt this hobby
Great video and spectacular scenery.
Great video work showcasing the diverse elements of the route and audio sharing the story 💯
Thanks for making it out Josh, considering you pedaled a SS at the Mid South three days before this trip, you are a bad ass!
Great film. Love the trip recaps.
Thanks so much!
Awesome, love these type of videos!
EPIC scenery, thanks man
Thanks for watching!!
Fantastic, waiting for another foot of snow to melt in Ontario, Canada.
What a trip! Thanks for sharing
Did you look for the "Monolith" spot? Remember that faux monolith that someone stuck out in the desert, ala 2001: A Space Odyssey? I believe it was off Lockhart Basin Road on a road that goes down canyon towards the Colorado. Right after you skirt along the cliffs on a narrow track and then make a tight turn where the road widens near a mushroom-like rock.
I look forward to getting this route on the GPS. Thanks!
Well done. This is the stuff that gets me stoked to get out there and get after it.
Thank you for that video it was very good
Everyone underestimates Flat Pass, it is built into it's name! ;)
Very nice 😊
Nice !
Awesome video, man! Loved it!
I dig this video - keep em coming!
Thanks Joe!
I just wanted to point out that even if the by anual time change goes away, the days will still be short. It doesn't matter if the sun sets 1h later because it's also rising 1h later.
A day with only 9h of sunlight will always be a day with only 9h of sunlight.
Yes, I understand. My whole point is the sun sets too early in standard time, I would love to wake up and be in darkness vs. dealing with darkness from 4-8 at camp before I get in my sleeping bag.
I can't wait to be in Moab riding biiiiiiikkkkkkeeeeeesssssss
Yahooooo!!!!!
WOW WOW WOW what an amazing trip, very envious. Loving this sort of content.
Nice challenge! 😄
0:50 get ready for 9-10am winter sunrises in Seattle
Yeah yeah, that’s tough. It not going to happen from everything I’ve heard. Likely not even going to the House for a vote.
Epic
Fun fact at 02:10 we call that a Taranaki gate here in New Zealand
6:47 Slayer 🤘🏻
The funny thing is, Chuck is the bassist for this band...www.dopapod.com/
Would love to see a gear load-out/list for what you brought for this 3 day 2 night trip. I feel like I have twice as much for the same timeframe lol
Finelly a trip recap! Gear reviews are fun n,all but this is what we want to see. Or am I the only one?
Can you do some videos on the type of clothing you use? Shorts, shirts and especially shoes for flat pedals
Thanks, one of many videos on the list!
Very beautiful scenery! Where can I found the gpx??

This looks great! Thinking about taking a new bike packer out this fall and wondering if this might be a tad much. Any chance you’d be willing to share info for the shorter route you mentioned?
chop off flat pass and just ride into Spanish Valley.
If you're out on the trails the time of day doesn't matter. Just let the sun be your clock.
Nice trip :)
One of you guys rode in Five Ten Freeriders. I was wondering if they are good for a whole day trip in the summer because I'm looking for flat pedal shoes for longer rides. Do they have a decent breathability and aren't they too heavy? Thx in advance :]
Beautiful ride, share the gps route if you can!
Stay tuned to BIKEPACKING.com next week.
Will this be added to the website?
Yep, it will be up next week.
Time Zones?
I like those, but living on the eastern end of them is not ideal.
Sure looks like a gravel bike is not exactly desirable here ... need more of a suspension/mtn bike.
Nope, luckily none of us were on "gravel bikes". Ideal bike is an ATB.
Rim Tours gets way too many inquiries about doing rides like this on gravel bikes. We say no. Next question is gravel e-bike. 🙄 Still no. Moab is famous for mountain biking. While the choice of drop bar bikes wasn't hazardous to the health of these highly skilled riders, the fun factor increases on a flat bar big tire rig. If we had not received a decent rain storm, it would have been less fun for those guys on 2.1's.
