Hey BBTC! It's been a GREAT week of riding with another great line up for this week! The big highlights for this week would be the "Taterville 100" super series and the Big climb over "Mt. Nebo" the only super series ride under 100 miles. The Canyon club will be climbing Big Cottonwood this week and Thursdays are becoming a social ride night favorite with Tonya bringing us the "Beer Widow's Ride" to compliment Doug's ever popular "Bike & Brew". Days getting too hot? Take a night ride with Robert or why not head up to Park City and ride the Seven Hills with Cheryl and stick around for a fun mtn bike ride in round valley and follow it up with a burrito or shrimp Diablo at Chubasco's. Speaking of Mtn biking, Jason has an awesome ride in upper Millcreek or maybe downhilling is more your style, then head up to Sundance and let the lifts do the climbing for you with Teresa. Well whatever choices you make, have a Fun and Safe week both on and off the road and don't forget to wish Fred and Sue "Happy Anniversary"! Pedal Fast and Laugh Often!
