HALLOWEEN PARTY 2016

We had a great time visiting, eating, looking ahead to some rides in 2017.  I won't even admit taking the following photos.  (It's all the iphone's fault!! haha)



We had fun visiting and talking about some overnight rides for next season.  Here is a tentative schedule:  (Those of us not listed, will partner up and work as a team.)

Grand Canyon:  April - Palmers
Mt. Carmel:  May - Brenchleys
Panguitch:  June - Englands
Richfield:  Aug - Cooks
Island Park - Dix & Sheila

Cheryl and Shari surprised us all with Timpanogos Trail Riders official flags!  It will be fun to show them off when we ride together.  Thank you Cheryl for the beautiful artwork, and Shari for the time and effort to do this.  (They will let us know what we need to contribute toward the cost.)




Of course an official meeting of the Timpanogos Trail Riders wouldn't be complete without safety tips and a protective gear demonstration from our Safety Marshal Larry!!
















It doesn't get much better than sharing great food with great friends, remembering great times and anticipating more great times in the future!!  Thanks everyone for a GREAT evening!

Hole In The Rock Ride

Hole-In-The-Rock ride may best described in three words:  
    timely, contrast, and enjoyable.

Timely: Our original ride dates were for later in the week; several of the
group had conflicts so we backed up and rescheduled for the 18th-21st. If we
had kept our original dates we would have been rained out. Funny how things
seem to work out.

Contrast: Our ride on Monday covered desolate desert, majestic red rocks,
and some amazing views of the Hole-In-The-Rock. Those Pioneer were
dedication and perseverance personified, with a deep faith in God. The next
day we experienced the high (and I mean HIGH) mountain tops with winding
roads where the trees were in full bloom with colors of gold, orange and
red, it was breathtaking.

Enjoyable: We are very thankful for our friendships with each of you. All of
you contributed to a wonderful experience and memories that are cherished.
Thanks to all of you for a great time. Big thank you to Larsen, Brenchley
and Cook for their help and support.
