City Creek Canyon Bike Ride

Last night I road bikes with 3 girls from my neighborhood. We rode in the beautiful City Creek Canyon. We did 20 miles. It was so fun and really challenged me. I was passed by people on road bikes left and right!  I so need one of those. A girl can dream right. . . . Until then I will get an even harder workout on a mountain bike :)
* Thanks Jodi for the awesome cell phone pics :)
 
I am so proud of myself I did awesome on my goals too!!!

I only have a mountain bike, too. I get passed a lot. But like you said, we get a good workout! ;-)

My husband and I are doing a 25 mile bike race on July 3rd, so after Ragnar, I am going to be doing a lot of riding.

20 miles is something to be proud of , and I'm guessing if it's a canyon..we are talking hills..Be proud.!

20m on a mountain bike is awesome!

I notice that you have a full suspension bike. If your bike has the adjustment for it, you can lockout or stiffen/limit the travel on the shock absorbers. This will improve the efficiency of the bike since you won't be putting some of your energy into the springs of the suspension.

Of course, some also get a different set of road slicks to put on their MB as well to reduce the "rolling resistance."
