TriP tO VeRnaL

Stephanie and I made a trip out to Vernal to buy my bike. Her hubby Tim found me a realy good deal on a road bike from his friend who owns a bike shop in Vernal. We left on Friday to get a head start. We had tons of fun, talking, singing, telling stories, and eating. Here we are overlooking Strawberry Reservoir, it's still frozen.

We stopped in a town called Miton to get a bite to eat for dinner. It was really strange, while we were eating I was telling Steph how surprised I was that it was still light at 8:20pm, we pondered on that thought and continued eating, about 10 minutes later Steph said "It's not 8:30 it's 7:30." For some crazy reason my phone changed time zones only in the town of Miton...kinda strange.
Here we are being crazy!!!


Saturday morning we went to Attitude Cycle, and bought my bike. Yay!!! I'm so excited, I can't believe I finally have one of my own! Steph and I stopped in Park City to go to Pearl Izumi to get some cycling clothing. Here we are in Park City.

Once we got home we changed into our clothes and hopped on our bike to go on a 20 mile bike ride. It was super windy, but we had a lot of fun.
Here I am with my new bike, it's a Cannondale Synapse Carbon 5 Compact, I love it!

Steph and I right before our ride.

I had such a good time going to Vernal with Steph, and know how hard it was for her to leave her baby Gracie, but I really enjoyed our time together. Also, thanks Tim for giving up Steph and being so willing to watch Gracie overnight and all day Saturday!

Just the name of that bike sounds cool. I am serious about doing a sister bike ride every few months. You can ride in front while the rest of us ride behind you with our 1970 dirt bikes. So excited for you!

I had a super fun time with you! I'm so glad you FINALLY got your bike : ) Tim mapped out a course from my house to yours, so we will definitely have to take advantage.
