We base then on our experiences as riders, and on that of the people that we ride with. I would rate myself as a strong intermediate rider.
IMBA Green Beginner
IMBA Blue Intermediate
IMBA Black Difficult
IMBA Double Black Extremely Difficult

How do you rate your trails for scenery?

This is strictly my own opinion! How many times I stopped to enjoy the view is a good indicator!

What kind of bike to you ride?

I currently ride a Rocky Mountain ETSX-70, but have my eye on a Trek Remedy 9

I'm looking for a beginner ride in the Salt Lake Area.

The Jordan Parkway in both Salt Lake and Utah counties is a good ride for families. City Creek Canyon is another nice ride. For "beginner" trail rides, I recommend, Millcreek Canyon Pipeline , sections of the Bonneville Shoreline Trail and the Big Water Trail

I'm looking for a ride along the Wasatch Front that I can do during the winter months.

Stansbury Island can be ridden most of the winter. City Creek Canyon is plowed to the water treatment plant (about 3 miles)The Jordan Parkway is usually clear enough to ride. The Bonneville Shoreline is usually the last to close and the first to open.

How do you find new trails?

The best source for trails is a guide book by Gregg Bromka, Mountain Biking Utah's Wasatch and Uinta Mountains. People that visit my website will recommend new trails and by spending countless hours looking at topographical maps!

How do you map the trails?

I use a Garmin Edge 800. Luckily the friends I ride with are used to me getting us lost and taking "shortcuts".
