Henefer & Back........

Saturday's ride started out with some of the A & B riders together. As an enthusiastic B rider, I was excited to see how good they really are. It took them until the ZOO to say, LATER! (Bro. Hale, thanks for staying with me and Bro. Briggs if you ever start riding earlier then scheduled again, you will be changing my flats for a long time... you sandbagger.... that's a golf term, which if you don't understand Hale can help you.... NOT!)

We are SOOO lucky to live where we do and be riding in such beautiful surrounding in just minutes. I don't know who's idea it was to ride to Henefer and back, but I can truly relate to the feelings of the early pioneers as described on the plaque below. "As they crested the ridge it was heart-wrenching to discover that the most difficult part of the ride still lay ahead and some broke down and wept......... who's crazy idea was it to ride BIG MTN both ways??"  (73 miles / 6,700 vertical)

The B riders saw a buck in velvet, doe and fawn, butterflies mating, and discussed how each met his wife and proposed to her and other beers at the bar. I hope you A riders did more then just race each other...... :-)
