On the second day of the trip we went with Heather, Chris, and Cailan to ride the Western Rim Trail, which sits right on the Colorado-Utah border, in Rabbit Valley, just south of I-70. This year the weather was perfect; perfect temperature, plenty of sun, and not too much wind. The road in to where we started is a bit of rough one. We were a little concerned about dragging the 4-bike hitch-mounted carrier across rocks on a couple of dry wash crossings, but it worked out fine. We met a couple of cyclists from Michigan at the trailhead.
We also met some motorcyclists on the trail. Some were polite and even shut off their motor as we passed; others did something approximately opposite.
This ride is unquestionably the most remote of any we've ever done.
