June 04, 2013 (Moab, Utah) – TransRockies Events is thrilled to announce the launch of Moab Rocks. Long known as one of the world’s most iconic mountain biking destinations, Moab, Utah has played host to riders from far and wide.  In recent years, the Moab mountain biking community has worked tirelessly building epic trails and growing its reputation as a mountain bike Mecca.

Moab Rocks takes some of the regions best classic and new routes and combines them into a 3-day masterpiece of xc and timed descents in a fully supported format.  All this wrapped up in a fun and friendly atmosphere, combining camaraderie and competition. TransRockies Events pioneered Mountain Bike Stage Racing in North America with the TransRockies Challenge in 2002, and the 3-day race format with the TR3 starting in 2009. Poison Spider Bicycles brings its expertise in Moab’s mountain bike trails and community to Moab Rocks.

Moab Rocks will present not only the best in Moab riding, but also the best in Moab culture, with beer from Moab Brewery and an awesome wrap up party at Bar M Chuckwagon.  Moab Rocks will work in partnership with the Moab Trails Alliance, Moab Trail Mix, and under permit from the Bureau of Land Management and the Manti-La Sal National Forest.

The inaugural Moab Rocks will take place on October 12th-14th, 2013. Registration is set to open at noon on June 6th, 2013 at www.transrockies.com. Early Bird pricing is effect through June 30th.
