Default Moab in 3 weeks: Advice for newbies

Group of 6 from work are heading to Moab on October 5-9. None of us has been there before, but we've done quite a bit of research. Pretty novice group with all but me who ride only 2-3 times a year. We are staying just south of town and will be driving a motor home. Im looking for 3 good routes that are around 40-50 miles per day. We have to take the motor home with 24' trailer to the staging ares as well.

My plan so far is Sovereign trail on one day, maybe Gemini bridge area another day and possibly Kane creek on the 3rd. Possibly poison spider if not too tough would be an option or just putting around Fins and Things.

Any advice from those who've been? Looking for fairly easy stuff with a novice group. 4 of the guys haven't ridden once this year! We just want to enjoy our time and not really interested in pushing it. No 5MOH! I have a guide book and several great maps. Just looking at 1st hand experience.

Really looking forward to an amazing trip with good buddies and fun riding!

Thanks. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
