Spring Training in St. George, Mar. 5-8

Get some spring miles in and enjoy the warm weather and a change in scenery. The current weather forecast for SLC for this weekend is snow and rain, but the St. George forecast calls for temps in the 60s and mostly sunny (except for a little rain on saturday). What better excuse do you need to load up and head south?

Some people will be heading down early thursday to get in a short ride thursday afternoon, and others will be heading down thursday afternoon. The basic plan is to ride to Mesquite by way of old highway 91 on friday (11o miles or so with a good climb both directions), then ride from St. George to the Zion park entrance on saturday (another 100 miles or so, mostly flat with rollers), though some people are taking down mountain bikes to do the opening race of the Intermountain Cup MTB series (http://www.intermountaincup.com/race/) on saturday as well.
On sunday some of us will get out for a shorter ride like the Gunlock loop (40 miles or so with a couple short, steep climbs).

Of course, if you dont' want to ride those distances, or if you can't come down until friday or saturday, don't let that stop you. There are plenty of riding options regardless of how far or how fast you want to ride.

We're trying to coordinate meeting times and places so, please email if you plan on heading down so we can let you know the details. (skullcandyracing@gmail.com)
