Tour de St George

On Saturday, my son Ryan, my son-in-law Brandon, and I were in St George, Utah to ride the fall version of the Tour de St George.  Climbing the hills in the ride was a real challenge for this flat-lander from Houston.  But we did it!  Brandon finished about 1 hour and 45 minutes ahead of me and Ryan.  Ryan would have finished about 45 to an hour ahead of me, but he waited for me at all the water stops.  We enjoyed it so much we'll probably do it again next year.

A big thank you to my sister, Diane, who let us stay with her.  I was there for about a week, while Ryan and Brandon arrived late Thursday night and left early Sunday morning.


105.8 Miles!

At 45 Miles
You'll notice how neat and rested Ryan looks, while I look disheveled and tired.  The scenery is wonderful!
