Itinerary
Arrival Day – Aspen
Day 1 – Aspen Loop Ride
Your journey begins with a warm-up loop ride through the Roaring Fork Valley. Following the Rio Grande Trail, you’ll spin past rivers, meadows, and ranchland with sweeping views of the Elk Mountains. This relaxed introduction ends back in Aspen, where you’ll enjoy a second night in town. (Approx. 25 miles)
Day 2 – Aspen to Glenwood Springs
Follow the Roaring Fork River downstream on a paved trail winding through valleys and forests, gradually descending to Glenwood Springs. E-bikes make the miles approachable, leaving you time to soak in the town’s famous hot springs or explore its lively downtown. (Approx. 40 miles)
Day 3 – Palisade Fruit & Wine Byway
After a short van transfer to Colorado’s wine country, you’ll ride the scenic Fruit & Wine Byway in Palisade. Cycle past vineyards, orchards, and farms framed by dramatic mesas, with plenty of chances to stop at wineries or sample fresh produce. Overnight in Palisade. (Approx. 25 miles)
Day 4 – Arches National Park Ride
Transfer west to Moab, the adventure capital of the Southwest. This afternoon, ride into Arches National Park, where iconic sandstone arches and towering red rock fins rise from the desert floor. With van support throughout, you can ride at your own pace and stop often for photos of this unforgettable landscape. Overnight in Moab. (Approx. 20–30 miles)
Day 5 – Moab Scenic Loop Ride
Spend the day exploring the desert landscapes surrounding Moab with another van-supported loop ride. Depending on conditions and group preference, routes may include Canyonlands overlooks, Potash Road, or the Colorado River corridor.

Departure Day – Grand Junction
After breakfast, transfer by van to Grand Junction for your departing flight. Reflect on your week’s journey—from Aspen’s alpine valleys to Moab’s red rock canyons—and the incredible variety of landscapes along the way.
