Cycle Salt Lake Century and the Best Dam Bike Ride

Well, my bike spent the winter in the garage collecting dust. Should have spent time on my stationary bike but grad school and relocating and all the fun and wonderful things associated have proven to be more time consuming than I thought they would be. Two weeks ago (or so) I dusted the bike off and headed for the Cycle Salt Lake Century. I spent 20 years in Phoenix before moving to Ogden so the thought of sunscreen never entered my head. Since I have not been out of a hoodie since August, I was white as a ghost, at least til the Bike-B-Q set in. Most of the peeling is over with so I can venture out again to prepare for the next MS 150 up in Logan. Should be a pretty fun ride. I will be hauling an extra 20 lb around (bike in garage since November, remember?) so am happy that this ride will not have the mountains the Las Vegas ride had. I am still thinking about doing the Gambler's Classic again, though. That was a GREAT ride.
