Heck Yeah, Gunch- I'm hoping to do THAT trip, too- Maybe with Poof this year! Valmont, Tressle, Keystone- what a trifecta! And white ranch at the Pink Puke trail head!! (LOL- Sorry to Dave, I couldn't help myself!)
Believe in yourself? Well sure, of course. But be aware that "believing in myself" has been the root cause of most of my injuries.

one more thing. Conditioning. If are thinking about getting in on this, here's one way to know if you can hang. If you can ride Sunderbruch's LT trail twice in a row without stopping, you should do fine. If you can't even ride it once, this trip probably isn't for you.

Yo, Ray about summed it up, but here's a little bit of break down.About how much Should one look at for rental or the whole shabang breaking it down some what by equipment, transporation, food, lodging and anything else one would need to know?
Bike rental: 65 per day
Food: figure 30 a day
room and board: about 300 total
beer: ???? what happens in Utah...
I dropped about 600 last time and that was with a lot of extras stuff I didn't need.
Things you will need for sure:
100 oz water pack with extra storage for sweat shirt or whatever
rain pancho
warm base layer
extra tubes and such. plan on all new drive train before heading out. It's a looonng walk back on some of these trails.

I'll take one of the first timer seats if it is a go. I already somehow convinced the boss lady to let me get a FS bike.

It's an unwritten rule that the first timer lugs around a DSLR camera and takes pictures for the group
I don't think this trip has "officially" been announced, but it sure seems like there's interest! The main planner for this trip has always done such a friggin awesome job with the whole thing- and I imagine it's a pain in the rear- that I for one sincerely hope the same dood is putting it togehter.
The 2 times I've done this trip, we've found enough vehicles and bike spots to accomodate all who wanted to join in, so if you want in, just plan on there being room and start makin plans.
The 1st time out was the best trip ever. Until the 2nd time we went out- BEST. TRIP. EVER.
