the last ride

Today Mark and David took their last mountain bike ride together before David heads back to Austin, Texas. They headed out to Park City to tackle a 24.9 mile loop of the Mid Mountain trail which rocks up and down the sides of the mountains at the 8,000ft level between Park City Mountain Resort and The Canyons Ski Resort. (No snow in Summer!) It was a 4.5 hour "epic" ride.
Here's a shot of David on the trail. You can just make out the town of Park City in the valley below (at 6,800ft). Hope to see you again soon David!

more mountain biking

We've been in mountain biking overdrive during the last week - with hundreds of pics taken. So for those of you interested in getting a taste of the activity here is a "summary" in a slideshow. You'll find Mark's Dad (who's in his 70's), Annie (Clair's 16 y.o. daughter), Mark, David & Clair in these pics (not everyone did every ride). The ride locations include, Lambert Park, and trails at the top of American Fork Canyon, Park City, Big Cottonwood Canyon and Mill Creek Canyon. Apart from the exercise there is some great scenery to enjoy.
