More Alpine Goodness
I cranked up the Alpine Loop again today. It has been to hard to resist its quiet beckon. I live closer to the Provo Canyon side, but I love going up the American Fork Canyon route. The climb is longer by about 4 miles, and it provides big fat views of the Wasatch Back. I […]
Deer Valley XC
The recent rain put the course in great shape. Sticky, but not muddy. The race started fast. My group shot out of the gate and up the long steep opening climb. I let them go, not wanting to repeat last weeks early pop. Over the course of the climb I pulled a couple guys back, […]
