I suddenly find myself with a little time off and a yen to get away from snow for a few days. Anyone here from St. George? I'd love to hear suggestions for a nice ride or two in that area, either road (50-75 miles) or easy trail. (Don't think I want to take both bikes, though.)
TIA, Bill

I did LAGBRAU in 2005 [not recommended; see http://www.crazyguyonabike.com/doc/lagbrau ]. Some of the other riders had rented from Kong Davis of Desert Cyclery in St. George. I stored my bike case there. So far as I know, everyone who dealt with Kong at the beginning or end of the trip thought highly of him.
I mention this because of the possibility you might want to rent, and also that Kong might have some local maps.

This is prime cycling season in south east Utah. A buddy of mine moved there 2 years ago, loves it, especially the road riding - he's a former triathlete turned roadie. Says the local road riding is very good with a few groups going out - check at some of the cycling shops.
