Ride on the Temple Quarry





This last weekend Molly and I went for a ride up the Temple Quarry trail in Little Cottonwood Canyon. We went with Molly's little sister Suzy and her beau Brannon. Also we had the pleasure of riding with our other friends Tiff, Amy and Stacey. As you can see from the pictures it was a lot of fun. Only Amy had a spill as you can see from the pictures.

The Tour de Four!





The mighty feat of conquering the four canyons has been put to bed one more year. Yesterday Jeff Cole and I rode up and down Little Cottonwood, Big Cottonwood, Millcreek and Emigration Canyons. We started at my house at 7:30 in the morning and I ended up at my parents house at 4:30 that afternoon after riding 104 miles and climbing 11,650 feet. Jeff of course was feeling better than I so he continued on back to his house finishing the loop. Next year we want to do it in the spring time and do it faster. This year it took me 7 1/2 hours to do 104 miles. Next year . . . we will see.
