Boys and their toys.....

Last weekend, Brad and David took off for Brian Head, Utah for two days of bike riding. They left on Friday morning and got to Brian Head about noon. Friday's ride was about 25 miles and 3000 ft of climbing to Lauder ponds to the Peak, down Dark Hollow and up through Scout Camp, just a great ride.

Why I love this place....
After the ride they went to the spot where Brent's cabin use to stand, and set up camp. They did a bit of fishing and caught two fish and had a great spaghetti dinner. As a family, we use to just love going to the cabin in Brian head. It was about the most relaxing spot on earth and I do miss going there. Saturday morning the boys got up, broke down camp and set off on an other ride. This one is called Bunker Creek, it is a fun, downhill ride that is about 12 miles. George from "Georges Bike Shop" Drove them to the top, elevation 10,500 feet and set them loose, then picked them up at the bottom and took them back to his shop. Just a great chance to spend some time with each other doing what they both love, some great biking through the beautiful mountains of Utah.
