Summary: Best guide book to cycling in Moab
Review: Comprehensive and accurate descriptions of all of the most popular rides in Moab and the surrounding area. Great history, geology and insight into the local area. A must for any Moab cycling trip.
Rating: 
Summary: Out of date, but still helpful for those who know already
Review: I used this book for years and had a love/hate relationship with it. It got me lost lots of times, but also turned me onto some great rides. The real negative is that the book is woefully out of date and some of the rides have changed drastically. If you use it in conjunction with a more recent guidebook like Mountain Bike America:Moab then you will indeed have a powerful tool for deciphering Moab.

Summary: Absolutely the Best!!
Review: This book is old school and it's obvious that the author really cares. Great photos, great maps and great writing. It was the first (I believe) guidebook for biking written about Moab area and having bought and subsequently tossed all the others, I think it is still the best. We have made the Moab pilgrimage every year for the last eight and this book is the only one worth lugging along.

Summary: Absolutely the Best!!
Review: Todd Campbell wrote this book from experience. His details regarding the trails, how to find them, what to watch for, and what to avoid, are excellent. Although written in as if a technical manual, (the lack of down-to-earth humor such as found in Cosmic Ray's books in Arizona) can be overlooked due to quality content. If you can secure both the Moab East and the Moab West topographical maps with the book, you will find the information infinitely more useful. Book contains details such as type of ride, length, difficulty, best seasons, elevation, land agencies, route summary, options, attractions, riding surface, logistics, trailhead access, and mileage log and route description.
