June 27 2009 - Payson - Salt Lake City


Salt Lake City! Today was another fun arrival into a big city. We hit some bad construction so everyone was only able to ride 25 miles before being racked into the city. Once we were there, we had lunch and prepared for our staged arrival into the Saturn Dealership in downtown Salt Lake City. A staged arrival is when we ride in a double pace line (or 2 people wide) into a city. An arrival is a lot of fun because there are usually people and press waiting for you. In this case we had the friendly staff of the Saturn Dealership provide food and beverages while some local media took video for the news.


Once we were completed at the Saturn Dealership, we went to Raging Waters Amusement Park for a friendship visit. It was a blast because we were able to ride the water slides with our new friends.


The rest of the evening was low key as me and 5 other riders did some much needed laundry. Tomorrow we have another great friendship visit planned for our free day. See you then!
