Cache Valley Century 2012

This year's Cache Valley Century was another winner.  The weather was perfect.  It wasn't too hot, the sky was perfectly clear and the winds were light and variable.  I don't think you could ask for a better day.  The rest stops were excellent.  There was plenty of food with very nice people at the stops.   Also, the lunch at the end was catered by Cafe Sabor and was excellent.    

They had a new route this year.  It didn't go into Preston, but there was an out and back leg to Wellsville.  The overall vertical gain is only 2000', but that nasty climb at the end gets me every year. Still, this ride is my favorite century of all time.   


The really great news is they got rid of the cow on the t-shirt.  Now I'm the proud owner of a bright orange t-shirt with the new logo.  Perfect for hunting season :)
