An eventful ride and change of scenery

My great and good friend, Chris, and I decided we wanted a little change of scenery, so we started scheming on stealing the car from Bridget and heading somewhere to get a nice change of pace. This morning we put the bikes on the rack (thanks in-laws!) and headed to Heber Valley. What a beautiful drive. For those of you who haven't been in Utah recently, we've had the rainiest June in Utah record, so all of our surroundings are green and gorgeous! Provo Canyon was amazing, and Heber Valley was the same.

Here we are on our way to Heber... don't those bikes look sexy?



We went for a short, but enjoyable ride. Along our route we passed through Midway. Midway is a small, beautiful, Swiss themed towne (yes, it earned towne with an "e"... it's that cool). We enjoyed plentiful sunshine, empty roads and awesome scenery.
One of the highlights of the ride was passing by the Heber Valley Airport. Check out the video below to get a little glimpse into our ride and what we saw!



I hope you enjoyed having some video and seeing what our ride was like. Chris was stoked on the planes. Me too... I've always loved WWII era aircraft! Wish you were here!!

Miles that flew by: 17.7

    Dude. Tight planes man!! Wasn't the B-24 the one they flew off the aircraft carriers after Pearl Harbor? You got room for a third bike up on that rack?

    Those were actually B-25's on Doolittle's raid... close though. Sorry, but only room for two on the rack. You can buy a third bike holder for us if you want to tag along though. :)
