It’s easier than ever to ride Moab’s iconic trails.
MOAB, Utah (April 22, 2025) – Porcupine Shuttle has always focused on excellent customer service and easy travel to the Moabs’ most sought-after mountain bike trails. For the 2025 season, Porcupine has joined the Utah-based Loam Pass,which provides discounted access to more than 50 mountain bike destinations throughout North America. And, to help riders safely transport their bikes and gear to Moab, Porcupine is now linked through Send My Gear.
Bryan Nickell founded Porcupine Shuttle in 2006. Now-owner Kacey Hazam worked for Nickell, driving shuttles,meeting guests, and watching Moab’s mountain bike scene evolve, for 12 years before purchasing the business in 2023.
“I love enabling our clientele’s mountain biking habit. They’re so pumped to ride the incredible and unique trails here. We get to share in that stoke as we take them to the trailhead and streamline their day,” says Hazam. “Porcupine has the best repeat guests, and I’m excited to be able to offer them more value through the Loam Pass, as well as a safe way to get their own bikes to Moab through Send My Gear.”
Porcupine Shuttle operates out of Double Down Bike Shop, which is owned and operated by Dustin Dickey at 255Williams Way in downtown Moab. When a guest ships their bike through Send My Gear, the Double Down team can build the bike and have it ready to ride for the morning shuttle.
“Owning a business in Moab is so rewarding,” notes Hazam. “The family of business owners here really support each other and work well together.”
Porcupine Shuttle offers multiple trailhead drop-offs on a regular schedule. The Whole Enchilada, which drops through the forested La Sal mountains to the desert and includes the iconic Porcupine Rim Trail, is one of the most popular destinations. The recently completed fast and flowy Raptor Route provides a taste of quintessential Moab riding. The Magnificent 7 trail system includes classic trails like Bull Run, Gold Bar Rim, and the Portal. Additional services include airport transfers and transportation to the San Juan Hut system.

“Our vans are always clean, the tunes are good, and when you call you’ll get me on the phone every time,” saysHazam. But she also warns: “Use the bathroom before getting in the shuttle–we don’t make any stops along the way to the trails.”
