Cactusjack just can't be stopped!

I haven't had enough riding over the past few days, so I took a ride up to Park City Utah this morning - home of the 2002 Winter Olympic Games.

Here's a picture of the winter sportspark where the ski jumping competitions were held:



Here's a picture of historic Main Street. The Park City Arts Festival is in progress:



Here's a picture from Guardsman Pass (9900' above sea level) a few miles east of Park City. Up above the tree line, that's snow you see there. I used to hunt deer in this area years ago. Now it's all developed with condos and luxury homes. It was very windy and very cold on top of this ridge.



If anyone wants to see the rest of the pictures from my ride, look HERE

I'll say. It was a huge contrast to where I've spent the past few days.

I just can't imagine why? I slept 11 1/2 hours last night from that endeavor.

BTW -- I saw your name and city on a Mustang Seat ad in the latest Road Bike magazine. I'm looking for a seat. I'm convinced that some of the fatigue was from the stock seat.

No. 2 reasons: the sign said the road was closed and I wanted to go back to Park City so I could get to US 40 and go to Heber City and Daniels Canyon.

That's right. I do celebrity endorsements now. I'll have to look for that when I get back home.

There is definitely no stopping cactusjack for sure!! Snow?? I would have rolled all over it just to freeze after last weeks baking!!! Let us know your total mileage when you return to home!
