Hey BBTC! Well, it looks like another week of great riding opportunities ahead of us. Tom Coffey is leading a couple of assaults on Big Mountain this week and Mary Margrets full moon ride on the rail trail up in Park City is always a fun time. Take your pick on Wednesday to beat the heat, Malcolm is climbing Millcreek this week and Cheryl has a nice ride in Park City.
