"Life doesn't get any better." ~ Mountain Bike Action

DreamrideThis truly is the ultimate
Moab mountain bike vacation.


riding the rock The "Ultimate" is a five day version of our legendary MOAB SLICKWEEK, pumped up with every luxury and additional service we provide. After 17 years of refining the mountain bike day tour series format, the Ultimate is exactly what it sounds like. This is more than a chance to enjoy the unique sport where surfing meets cycling, it is the opportunity of a lifetime for an avid mountain biker. Welcome to the slickrock of the Entrada, Navajo, Kayenta, and Moenkopi geological layers, the new high desert singletracks that have given Moab an even greater reputation for having the most extensive trail offerings, and welcome to choice luxuries that allow you to ride harder, enjoy each day more and take home amazing photographs and cherished memories.

The exposed rock of southeastern Utah can be extremely open and deceptive in its geologic complexity and the singletracks can be a shock to the imagination and a confusing maze of choices in a dangerous setting. Slickrock areas can be frighteningly massive or extremely tight, twisted and mental. Singletracks have hidden surprises that can cause injury. Each Ultimate package is custom-tuned for client(s) to be challenging and difficult, but safety concerns always come first. Every initial ride with Dreamride is an evaluation of skills, fitness and maturity. Lee Bridgers' memorized slickrock routes are invisible, varying from moderate scenic touring (where you can actually look up from the trail) to full-blown surfing the halfpipes and moguls for endless miles. Lee's flora-and-fauna-friendly slickrock techniques and skills classes have been featured on ABC's Good Morning America, in Mountain Bike Action and Sunset magazines. His mountain bike stunt production work can be seen in the IMAX film, EVEREST.

The Ultimate, like all of Dreamride's custom vacations, is only available to private parties and includes all SUPER ELITE PACKAGE OPTIONS as well as rental bikes and six nights in Moab's most luxurious lodgings just yards from our shop space and guesthome (a private clubhouse for your party). Combine the Ultimate with the purchase of a new DREAMRIDE BIKE to realize the absolute mountain bike fantasy.

DreamridePrivacy ~ Highest Quality
Dreamride's vacations are private for quality's sake, providing solos, couples, and mature groups of three or four the best services we can provide, lodgings in the best location, and the best rides we have access to.

Real Privacy! Guiding for the Ultimate focuses on getting you to a place where you will not see another mountain biker. We work with clients to maintain a low profile, hopefully out of sight and mind of everyone except Miki who sits in the Dreamride office, keeping track of us for safety's sake. Our groups are small for your enjoyment, efficency, access and low environmental impact. We do everything within the cushion of safety to leave absolutely no trace of our passing. After being alone with your guide, you may want something different and social in town. If so, we recommend booking during Rod Benders (hot rod show), the Canyonlands Film Festival, Moab Music Festival, the Moab Folk Music Festival or another event of personal interest. Call us for the best dates of the year. You must reserve a year in advance to guarantee the best lodgings and services. Moab is a very popular place and events max it out.

The Ultimate began as an out-of-the-ordinary honeymoon package. Dreamride will arrange weddings in remote and beautiful spots, formal or informal. Get hitched under an arch or in a box canyon. Get married on the bike. We take care of paperwork, planning, and special touches.
