Shell-ed on Big Cottonwood Hill Climb


This past Friday was really warm so dad and his buddies decided to ride Big Cottonwood Canyon. So Dad set out with Joel, Luke and sean.. all featured Uncles from my blog.





Sean is still mad about us beating him to the top of Emigration...twice, so he's always trying to put the hurt on Dad when they ride.. plus Sean is a hammer head so he rides hard from the time he leaves the house till he gets home

As soon as Dad and friends hit the road Sean drilled it off the front of the group, here is a pic of him riding away.

and another(headless horseman



Dad encouraged Sean to pace himself as the ultimate goal was to climb Big Cottonwood, which is a mellow 16 mile canyon...anyway..

Apparently as soon as they started to climb Big C, sean disappeared.. not off the front but shell-ed off the back like soft shell crab at dinner time. It wasn't long(1mile) before Uncle Luke suffered the same fate... all the while Joel and Dad were catching up on each others lives as it had been a bit since they rode together.

Dad ended up in the DOg House that day though cause he was late to get home which made MOm late for work.... Bad Dad!
