Hi
I plan a bicycle tour from Las Vegas to Salt Lake City or a round trip From LasVegas to Moab and back (I have not decided yet). I will cycle with a heavy loaded bike, without suspension fork, etc. But before I book the flight I have some questions about the accessibility of some roads for bicycles.
- So I don’t find an alternative road to the I-15 from Overton to Littlefield (direction St. George) and I assume the I-15 is prohibited for Bicycles.
- I have read that the Mt Carmel Tunnel in Zion Nat. Park is closed for bicycles too. How do I get to the other side?
- In the north of Moab I don’t find an alternative road to the I-70 from Crescent Junction to Floy Station Exit 173 (only 7 miles)
- How are the unpaved roads to drive? Is it possible to cycle on them without much pushing my bike?
I would be very appreciated if somebody could help me to clarify this point. I normally try to avoid the transfer of the bicycle with buses. If the bus has not a special equipment, then you always have a lot of trouble with the too many bags and the much too long bicycle. And of course the feeling is not the same. (I did not the whole way be myself)
Thanks for your help
