Came to Salt Lake City last month. Would like to buy a cheap bike. Don't have any previous experience. Confused about what's the difference of a mountain bike with a normal one. any recommendation for bike in the $500 range? NB. SLC (Utah) is mountainous.
Answer
Main difference is:
If you ride asphalt, you want a road bike.
If you ride unpaved trails a mountain bike.
If you ride asphalt and the occasional compacted gravel path a hybrid.
There are other minor differences:
weight: road<hybrid<mountain
potential speed: road>hybrid>mountain
long distance capacity: road>hybrid>mountain
price: road>hybrid>mountain
There are even more specific differences but for the non-experienced, this should suffice.
About 40-50% of the guys in the club use Trek. Find one in that range and you should be doing pretty good.

Going there in March. Really want to hike the Arches and maybe bike the Canyon lands. Any insights about this place?
Answer
Was there about 3 weeks ago. Gorgeous. Are you a bike rider? They're very serious about it, and have lots of stores that cater to the crowd. There is a bike path that goes from Moab to the Arches, and out to the cutoff for Canyonlands. Canyonlands would be a long ride out to the park itself.
We were RVing.
