Road Ride

Distance: 14.3
Ride Time: 0:50
Average Speed: 17 mph
Notes: Rode the trail system near the new house today. All was well until my back tire went flat at my turn around point and I had no spare. I limped it back to the house stopping to pump it up about 7 times. Passed Dad Boushley on the way back as he was on his way out.

Trail 157 & South Fork

Distance: Approx 10
Fellow Riders: Michael Hancock
Notes: Oh to be back in Utah. I didn't bring my bike up for family reunion but called Michael to see if he wanted to ride anyway. He was available so I rented a bike from BYU Outdoors Unlimited and we went out for a ride on Trail 157 to Cascade. That is still my favorite trail from Utah. Then on the way home we stopped and rode South Fork. It made me miss living in Utah and made me want a new bike.

Hawes Trail

Distance:
Fellow Riders: Mike & Spencer
Notes: Last ride with Spencer before he moves to Colorado. Everyone was feeling a little out-of-shape due to a lack of riding. It was great fun on one of my favorite trails in the Valley.

Thunderbird Park

Distance: 12+
Notes: Rode from new house to T-bird Park. Rode the loop counterclockwise, which is more fun. After more than a month off the bike I was struggling.

Quick Neighborhood Sprint

Distance: 4.06
Ride Time: 13:42
Average Speed: 18.3
Notes: I'm feeling like my muscles are beginning to atrophy. My rides are fewer, further apart and shorter. I need to get serious again. Tonight I had to go out quick just because I had been working indoors on a computer all day.

FINS

Distance: 7.8
Ride Time: 0:52
Average Speed: 9
Fellow Riders: Mike & Spencer
Notes: It was a hot afternoon. We started about 5:45 pm. We took a different route than what I had taken before. Up Harv's Howl, to Jim's Star Pass to North Star, down Grunt, left around Roman's Rise, then instead of Randy's Ridge we took the new trail around the hill, Spent Spade to Muriel's Mile, around Boneyard, up Hurts Donut and back down to the entrance. I went down once and bruised the palm of my right hand while catching myself. I have a feeling that is going to smart for a couple of days.
On the way down Grunt we saw turtle in the middle of the trail. We moved him off the trial and I posed for a picture with him. I'll post it here once Spencer emails it to me. Hopefully it's not some endangered species that I'll go to jail for touching.
