Of course, the AMC has been canceled since I made these plans. It would have been nice of them to cancel it before I planned my season (and my family vacation) around it. BTW, don't tell the rest of my family that I planned their vacation around my race (which never even happened).
The canceling of the AMC didn't stop me from having a good time down at Duck Creek with the family though. And since we were staying in a cabin that was a few miles away from the start of the Virgin Rim trail (which would have been Stage 1 of the AMC), I couldn't help but partake in some Virgin Rim goodness:
My brothers, my pops and I also hit the Navajo Lake loop (half of which was also supposed to be in the AMC):
You can tell that Finley (in the pack) is just fascinated by Bryce Canyon:
I made Wesla pull her weight as well:
And the scenery didn't suck:
Since I wasn't busy racing the AMC prologue on Thursday, it gave me a good excuse to head up to the Nebo loop to watch the Tour of Utah. In case you hadn't heard, there were reports of a bearded lady in the Payson Canyon:
The race leader was inspired. Or maybe just riding in fear.
At the back of the pack, there was a lot of extra long hand-ups going on:
Getting ready to show the riders his/her version of being a true Scotsman:

Well we need to get a birthday A.M. American Fork ride in for you then since you missed the AMC. Looks like you had a good time riding casually down there though. Also Courtney fell asleep one time in our backpack on a hike and rubbed the skin off her forhead from swaying back and forth. Something about the backpacks puts kids to sleep.
