A Little Rain

We were going to ride up Hobble Creek Canyon, but I while I was leading I didn't know where to turn and so we ended up doing the chicken run loop.

Layne says, "If you don't know where you are going then don't lead."

AF Canyon and Son

Took Stephan up American Fork Canyon today. We started at the Timpanooke trail head on the Great Western, went up to the Ridge Trail, down Pine Hollow to the Great Western and back to Timpanooke.

Stephan seemed a bit upset about the steep rocky parts, and fell off the trail and had the bike land on top of him. Hopefully though he had enough fun that he will be willing to go with me again someday.

5 Mile Pass

Road Max 30.3 Avs 20.1 Dst 33.23 Atm 1:39:08 Odo 576 Alt^ 985

I figured I needed a good hour steady ride this morning, so I headed out to 5 Mile Pass. I averaged around 21 mph to Fairfield, and figured the ride back would be easier. However it was a bit longer to get to the top of the pass than what I thought, and it wasn't as down hill on the way back as I thought it was.

Anyway my one hour trip ended up closer to two hours. Here is another view of the pipe hill.

Provo Canyon BST South

Max 35.3 Avs 8.6 Dst 9.44 Atm 1:05:48 Alt^ 815

Today we rode up Provo Canyon to the BST and then South. There was a mud slide near the top of the climb. It took out the part of the trail I had the most troubles with, the narrow steep drop off. Now the trail goes over the mud slide and is nice and wide.

It was a bit muddy in places, but overall it was a great ride. Today's picture is again from the pipe hill in Slate Canyon. Last year we would ride up right where my bike is. As you can see this is not possible now.

Short Ride
