To lazy to write anything up, took a long sight seeing drive over the weekend, with a bike ride thrown in to break up the trip. Nothing special, but thought folks would enjoy seeing part of UT that isn't Moab. I need to do more exploring in that part of the world.

sweet pics! and nice to see more of Vernal. A friend and I were out that way for a river trip earlier this summer and met a couple that had worked on some of the local trails so we've been talking about going back with our bikes but we haven't made it. What trails did you ride?

Those guys have done one hell of a job turning cow trails into singletrack. I like all the burried bike frames along retail sale, one is burried front first with blades on the back wheel windmill style. sorry no pics

**Lonnie** · 09-19-2007, 02:05 PM

This REALLY needs to be a TGR trip next spring....

**Tele'ndaboat** · 09-19-2007, 02:37 PM
