Amazing eBike Ride - Snow Canyon Bike Loop (18 Miles) | St. George UT | 4K

In our quest to find the best bike trails for eBike riding, we travel to St. George Utah to ride the 18 mile Snow Canyon bike trail loop. The city of St. George is about 2 hours north of our home base in Henderson Nevada. Which is why this was a nice day trip. We parked at the FeelLove Coffee Cafe located at 558 E Riverside Dr #208, St. George, UT 84790. There are other places to park closer, but we anticipated being hungry when we got back and this is a highly-rated vegan friendly cafe that we like. We then traveled about 2 miles on the Red Hills Bike trail until we got to the Snow Canyon Parkway Bike Trail. The Snow Canyon Loop Trail is a paved double-track bike, hiking, and rollerblading trail that loops through Snow Canyon from the outskirts of St. George. If you ride the entire loop, including the section of highway at the top of Snow Canyon, you'll travel 18 miles and climb 1050 vertical feet. Keep in mind that southern Utah is hot like Las Vegas in the summer. On this first week of September ride, it was 87 degrees when we started at 9am. It does get cooler as your altitude increases in the canyon though. However, when we got back to St. George a couple of hours later it was almost 100 degrees before noon. Also note there is $5 State Park fee which covered a group (both of us). There are a few hiking trails that you can stop for with bike stands if you bring your locks. The Whiptail Trail is 5.6 miles. After which you can take the park's main scenic road to the north entrance while sharing the road with cars. After you exit the park the bike path continues for 7 miles along side of UT Hwy 18. It is a pretty straight run where you can cruise along the whole way without pedaling.

THE BIKE RIDEZ STORY & MISSION :

We are eBike Explorers! This is a channel about electric mountain bike riding for regular people. We are not hardcore mountain bike riders. If you are looking to see trail videos where the riders drop off 8,000 ft mountains at 45° angles you are in the wrong place (at least for now). We are full-time professionals who live in Henderson Nevada which is about 20 minutes from the Las Vegas Strip. Most of the videos you will see on this channel feature bike trails around the Las Vegas valley. Although we were avid bike riders before, the change to ebikes (EMTB) has opened up a whole new world of exploration and adventure for which we hope you will join us. Side note: Although we thoroughly love riding our e-mountain bikes for exercise and adventure, bike riding is our primary form of meditation and stress relief. Our bike rides allow for a few hours without our laptops, and without our phones where we can stay focused on being in the moment. Just like meditation and yoga, when we bike ride, we focus on our breathing, we push our bodies to feel more, and, we get to see some of the most spectacular scenic landscapes, sunsets and wildlife that the Mojave dessert has to offer.Whether you are a Las Vegas local or visiting from any where in the world, our hope is that with these videos we will encourage you to take advantage of the extensive Nevada bike trail system.

Are you ready?
