Cycle Salt Lake Century... A Beautiful Day!

Saturday was just an amazing day to be out riding the Cycle Salt Lake Century.  The weather was just right; nice mild temps and maybe occasionally a light breeze.  Just BEAU-TI-FUL weather!!!  And to top it all off I was out biking with friends and just taking it easy.  What a wonderful way to spend the day. 
We (Diane, Kym, and myself) rode 75 miles.  We were planning on shorter 67 miles but missed a turn.  This is the third time I had done this ride and I was in auto-mode and I missed a turn.  But I knew the area and we quickly were back on course.  The gals were teasing me about being the "Human GPS" and that I was voice activated.  But what can I say when you put about 5000 miles on a bicycle in a year you really get to know the roads.  (Top Photo: Kym, myself, Patty, Trisha, & Janice.  2nd photo: Kym, Sofia--check out those socks!, Kim, Diane, & myself.)


Sofia and Kim did 80 miles.  They are training to do their first century on the Little Red Riding hood ride in June.  This was the longest ride that Kim had ever done and she managed to pull through.  You Go Girl!
