Woke up in Escalante Utah this morning and after visiting with a gentleman from Maine, he convinced me to ride my bike down the Burr Trail. Drove to Boulder, Utah across the "hogs back." Stopped just the beginning of the Burr trail and started riding. Had my GPS with me and noticed I had dropped over 1000 feet in elevation in about 5.5 miles and it just kept going down. Turned around and rode back UP to the car. The Burr trail has a canyon called the "long canyon" which would absolutely be wonderful to ride on a bike. Beautiful day

Today's Miles - 11.2 Miles

Total Miles - 366.8 Miles

Took my boy scouts out on Legacy to get our first 25 mile ride. The two Jordans made it but Justice didn't quite make the goal in the time we allowed. I rode the distance with him and it took us 3 hours to go 21.1 miles :(

The annual "Bike the Bear" with the BSA. Woke up at the cabin right at 6am with a loud crack of Thounder followed by lots more. I watched lightning hit the ground, lake, buildings, I knew I'd see a fire start somewhere before it was all over. But nope, just lots of it. The show ended at 7:00 am and so got ready and left. We all met and began the ride at the Garden City LDS Church parking lot. It was about 8 am when I actually left. Rode to Laketown, turned right into Laketown and around a 10 mile "loop" before returning to the main highway and heading up the east side of the lake. Rode about 10 miles north before doing a "U" turn and returning back south to Laketown and then back up the highway to Garden City. Did it in 4hours and 24 minutes. Average speed was 11.3 MPH.

Today's Miles - 50.0 Miles

Total Miles - 279.9 Miles
