Southern Cache Valley Wandering
The thermometer dropped from the 80s to the 60s this week so the mornings are cool. I put in a few miles before the sun starts cooking us again. The ride – Paradise and some other climbs The bike – Time VRS Fluidity

Satan’s flies live here
Woke up early (for me) determined to make the climb up Millville Canyon. My goal was to turn around before the really steep bit but when I reached that bit my soul felt drawn to new elevations and the Ripmo and I continued climbing. During rides past, at my usual turn around spot I had observed a new trail. Today I determined to explore it.
Fully Baked
Summer has started in Utah and the hills are as blazing hot as Satan’s bedroom. The cool mornings are the perfect time to ride. By the time noon rolls around the sun has had sufficient time to turn everything into a blast furnace. I had a great time testing out my hydration limits today.

Logan Canyon is a Magical Place
My rides take longer because I keep stopping to take pictures. The wildflowers are in bloom and the river is running high. The ride – Zwift The bike – Trek Madone 6.9
Morning Swim

With many a Saturday chore ahead of me I woke up with just enough time to make a loop on the Time out to Paradise. Sadly, I will be off the bike for most of next week while I attend a work conference. I will miss my bikes. The ride – Paradise The bike – Time VRS Fluidity
Suffering on the Circles
Always burn, heavy breathing and suffering on the way up. Pure joy on the way down. Both are why I’m so addicted to the suffer circles at the top of Providence Canyon. The ride – Providence Canyon The bike – Ibis Ripmo
The Bridges of Millville Canyon
One of my favorite rides and probably one of the hardest. Millville is all up for the entire ride. It’s also beautiful and super fun. If you want to indulge prepare your legs for the burn. Alas, all is not always well. The first 4 miles of this ride Devin joined my on the shoreline trail to try his hand at taming the Bianchi on
