About riding in Utah
Utah combines red-rock desert scenery in the south with high mountain ranges in the north. Elevation, dry heat and remote stretches are the main factors, so plenty of water is important. Spring and fall are the best seasons for the desert, summer for the mountains.
Estimated finish times
The route is about 50 miles. Here is the moving time at a steady average speed. It is a flat-ground baseline: climbing, wind, stops at aid stations and group riding all move the real number, so treat it as a starting range.
| Average speed | Moving time |
|---|---|
| 10 mph | 5h 00m |
| 12 mph | 4h 10m |
| 14 mph | 3h 34m |
| 16 mph | 3h 08m |
| 18 mph | 2h 47m |
Most recreational riders average 12–16 mph on rolling terrain in a group, and less on hilly routes.
