Gotta love Utah

Post by traveltoad » Sun Oct 11, 2009 4:32 pm

Just a quick trip meeting friends in a couple different places. Five days 1800 miles.

First I had to drone along on the 15 to Washington, UT. I had pre-ordered a new set of tires at Pro Cycle Sports to be waiting for me. I can't say enough about everyone at Pro Cycle Sports, greast prices... nice people and had me ready to go in about an hour (After I pulled my own wheels they offered to mount the tires for free).

Then it was time to head east across UT.

County roads are a bit different in Utah.

The Moab area maybe old news, but it is no less beautiful.

Heading home through the Henry Mountains.

Utah is great. I lived there for a year and a half in the mid 80's.

Great photos!
