Saltwash and Sovereign Singletracks
Today I spent more time working on my bike than riding it. It made the the riding I did much more enjoyable though. My bike is now working better than it has in over a year.
When I asked a few days ago for suggestions on where to ride around Moab, I got a few replies for the Sovereign singletrack. I also got a reply for the new singletrack north of town. It might have been for Sovereign but there is a new singletrack that opened very recently.
The new singletrack is called Saltwash. It starts very close to Sovereign and crosses it a couple times with a few other connectors.
I like coming to Moab because of the scenery. I love the red cliffs and big drops. I also like the weather this time of year. The thing I haven't liked has been the lack of singletrack. To be honest, Fruita has better riding and the weather is almost as warm and dry.
Out where Sovereign and Saltwash are there aren't the big cliffs but the riding didn't disappoint. Saltwash is so new it's obvious it hasn't been ridden much and there are some soft spots. It's also still very narrow. There are a bunch of fun sections on it.
The recommended way is to go out on Saltwash so that's what I did. I then came back on Sovereign. I'll definitely be riding them again when I came out in the future.
