Sunshine and Centuries

This last weekend was UEA for Ross and fall break at USU so we headed down to St. George with my parents and Sam. He was riding in the Tour de St. George and was crazy enough to ride 100 miles!! but he did well and cut 20-30 minutes off his time last year (I cant remember what the exact time was). So I wanted to post some of the pictures since we followed him and cheered him on. Enjoy Schlam in spandex, I'm sure he would enjoy knowing these are here for the world to see.....


bathroom break and re-hydration. I think this was around mile 78. We waited in the car and watched the bikers stagger to the water. haha we were sitting in the car eating cheetos and drinking carbonation. surprisingly no one else was interested!!! GO AGGIES!

Looking good Lewis....
Off to Snow Canyon (the hardest bit of the whole thing). Good thing he had the mix I made especially for him and I hear it worked!

This is us while we waited in Snows.

Going up one big hill, of course we were glad we were driving in the car as we saw the bikers struggle up the hill.

Flying down Snows. I loved the background!!



He paused to wait for his fellow Utah Stater and so we gave him some cool water.

haha I think Sam loves this picture cuz he looks so cool. And he does...

This is Sam being bugged that Mom wasnt faster at getting him going through the finish line (we had forgotten our fast camera and only had an old slow one). Ross told Sam to put his arms up like on the Mercedes commercial and he did but mom missed it. Surprisingly, (or not so much) he was unhappy at the prospect of more pictures.
Reenacting the commercial with far less enthusiasm than the first time.

Cool helmet lines! haha had to take a pic


We are proud of our little sammy for showing us all up and looking so cool on a bike and for finishing 100 miles!! thats like riding from logan home!! ugh. but we love em'!
