Cycling 2:25:00 [3]
(4 hrs) Back to Porcupine Ridge with Bash, Harps and 4 of Harps' buddies.
Bit of a hassle using the shuttle van- Driver was afraid of the 'bent. We finally persuaded him to put it on the roof with a wheel- grabber rack just like all the others, just securing the back tire, and I had to sign a big waiver.
Once on the trail Joe, Mac and I tended to scoot down the steep stuff, while the Harps was climbing like a machine, but made efforts to keep the pack together.
A few incidents- Mark flatted, and Ben gashed his calf up pretty well. I had to put him back together with Butterfly stick-ties, 1/3 of a sanitary pad, a wrapping of gauze, then an arm warmer as an outer layer. He got 15 stitches later.
Even with all this we had a great time with exciting riding and spectacular scenery.
The boys had an absolute blast.
We're gonna miss Moab.
