So regarding camping in Moab, there's a huge area of dispersed camping on the road to Klonzo, the turnoff is near the Moab Giants dinosaur museum. I do believe there is a fee now, but you can usually find a site outside of holiday weekends and there are toilets in that dispersed camping area as well. You can also pedal straight over to Klonzo if you feel like riding Moab's most IMBAfied trail system. It looks like a fun ride, definitely spicy enough for a blue to be worth riding. I did a partial WE in late 2021 (late october so could only drop in at Kokopelli), and that is a very demanding ride, 23 miles of mostly pedally black tech, don't let the lack of climbing fool you, there's lots of punchy moves into features on UPS/LPS/Porc Rim. My personal favorite section was the massive slab rolls on UPS.
@huntstyle18 күн бұрын
Yeah, I was looking at the in-town campgrounds. It's a bit of a drive up there. I had points for the rest of the trip, so it was still a pretty cheap trip overall! I did 3/4 Enchilada back in 2020. Definitely a grueling ride. UPS/LPS is more XC, not really downhill. Porcupine Rim was my favorite part!

Nice video! Makes me want to go back to Moab (Just got back from Moab) I had headset issues with My Jeffsy, I rode it 3 times when it was new before I realized they never pre loaded the thing at the factory (now I know to check this when assembling a new bike) Anyway about a year later the Acros headset was making the same noise yours was in this video. Even after service it still made noise on longer rides, super annoying while climbing! I replaced with a King and no more noise. I also had issues with the linkage squeaking in the first 6 months. I had to tear it apart, clean and re lube all pivot points, that was a job! My seat post failed the day I arrived in Ketchum on a 3 week road trip from Southern California. $350.00 and 4 hours later I was out on the trail. from what I read that day the SDG Tellis seat post (YT Rebrand) has been known to do this. Fortunately I live down the street from YT and upon my return they gave me a brand new post so now I bring that as a spare when I'm on trips. Not bagging YT here. I love the Jeffsy and the guys at the Mill have always been good to me, I did however want to share some of my experiences with the bike in the interest of wasting less time. Enjoy Moab!
@huntstyle20 күн бұрын
My 2017 Jeffsy I never once touched the headset! Never had any issues with it. It's still smooth and silent. Thought about servicing it, but since I didn't have issues, I just left it alone. So that was kind of surprising. It's also an Acros. I was already thinking about a King headset when this issue came up. For sure I'll do the same if it continues to have problems. I hated the "YT Postman" dropper, so I swapped it out with the PNW from my old Jeffsy - which I've had problems with (scratching the stanchion) but they have replaced it for free under warranty, and actually upgraded me to the Loam dropper.

The opening statement is spot on, at 50+, my ability to push the limits without bumping into stupid is disappearing quickly. I'm still really good at falling, but soon, there won't be any good way to fall. There is full blown panic on what needs to be done before I have to slow down. Just take that fear and turn it into action - hit Moab, hit Whistler (with Vancouver and Squamish) and the alps. Don't wait - do it now.
