    Here is the third video installment from my 2008 Utah - Colorado Roadtrip. Poison Spider Mesa and the infamous Portal Trail. We were pretty cautious in what we rode in what we did not ride along the Portal Trail, but I must while editing this footage, there are some sections in retrospect, I would not ride again. The day we rode this trail was the day after a hard rain and I believe we were treated to some nearly ideal conditions, mainly being all of the sandy was pretty much rideable.

    Bill, thanks for the great RR (via the link on your website). Moab has always been a MTB mecca, ever since I began riding in the 80s.

    After getting a good taste of Utah riding not long ago (Thunder Mt., Little Creek Mesa, Gooseberry Mesa), I can say that Moab is on my 'shortlist' of riding destinations!
