Started at the capitol, climbed to the U, followed Foothill passing or Parley's until we hit Wasatch Blvd. Down the hill we went on 123rd S, and took 7 E to 8th S, climbed up to 13th E, past the stadium and up the hill again to the Avenues graveyard. Finishing with a descent to the capitol.

Just over 50 miles, took us about four and a half hours, fixed 3 flats and stopped to field a few phone calls. We averaged 15.1 MPH and I thought I could have gone much faster without the wife.

So I guess the invitation is, if anybody in the area wants to go for a ride with a fat beginner let me know I can do at least 50 miles.
