ULCER

Last weekend Spencer rode with his dad and two brothers in the ULCER (Utah Lake Century Epic Ride), a 100+ mile long bike ride around Utah Lake.  His dad has been doing this race for several years, and Spencer wanted to do it with him at least once before he calls it quits.  Spencer bought his road bike two weeks before the race and only had that long to prepare for it.  He has a mountain bike already and has been riding for years, but has only been on a handful (make that a small handful) of rides this year.  Let's just say it was an ambitious task.

He was pretty sore afterward, mostly from sitting on the bike that long.  He also got a little sunburned.  But he did a great job and was glad he got to do it.   I am so proud of him!  Now he is looking forward to using his new bike to start doing sprint triathlons.

Crew and cousins waiting to cheer on our riders in Springville.

Here they come!

End of the race!  They all survived and now have medals to showcase their hard work.

Happy family!
