Cycling

Vince Bynan, born and bred in Kansas, has possessed a deep-rooted love of bikes from day one. While his hometown of Kansas City was a great place to go to college and meet his lovely wife Liz, Vince always knew that he was destined for a more adventurous life. Several years after college, a friend introduced Vince to Springdale, a small town at the heart of Utah’s canyon country. In the fall of 2000 Vince and Liz left Kansas to start Springdale Cycle Tours at the mouth of Zion National Park. Through his years in southwestern Utah Vince grew the start-up business into a successful single and multi-day bike tour company, receiving write-ups in several magazines for his unique and authentic tours of the lower 48 state’s most mysterious and unexplored region. While the desert will always hold a special place in Vince’s heart, he and Liz craved the mountains, so in the winter of 2005 the two of them packed up their 1 year old son and all their belongings and moved to Park City. While the name of the business has changed to Summit Adventure Company, and they have added a bike/snowboard shop named Park City Rides, they offer the same impressive list of tours of the desert southwest and have added bike and snowshoe tours in Utah’s Wasatch Mountains.
