Salt Lake Century Bike Ride

We haven't posted for a while, but we are still alive. We will post some more pictures of Mae later today. We have been staying busy and enjoying the warm weather. On Monday Becca's step-data John and I went fly-fishing. It was snowing in the morning, so we went out a little later. It was still very windy and the fishing was slow, but it was still a good time. Hopefully we'll be able to go fishing again at the family reunion in Idaho this summer.
I've been trying to get ready for the MS 150 bike tour that I'm doing in June. Thanks for the generosity of those who have given donations on my behalf. My training has been pretty sporadic. I've started working part-time at the University of Utah, which keeps me really busy. Despite my lack of training, I decided to ride in the Salt Lake Century yesterday. They had three loops to choose from: 100 miles, 72 miles or 36 miles. We opted to do the 72 mile loop and it went better than I thought. I was still very sore and tired when I finished, but I had a lot of fun. I did get a really good sunburn. You can tell exactly where my riding gloves and helmet were . I'm feeling a little better about riding the MS 150 now. I took the picture as we we riding through Kaysville at around mile 30. Thanks to Denise, Scott, LJ and Jill for the good ride.
