So i managed to start the riding off season off right. BMW/Triumph of Salt Lake had their open house yesterday, so the canyonchasers crew (Eric/Dawn, Dave, Matt, Scott/Makenzie and myself) bounced up there to check it out. Scott won a jacket and gloves for his daughter, Makenzie. Dave won a magnetic tank bag for the mighty hawk.
After the drawing, we all jumped on the bikes and headed into Morgan to check out the section of east canyon that was open. Matt impressed everyone with his riding and again kicked my butt and made it look effortless.
We managed to get about 200 miles of riding in and stopped at a coffee shop in Kimball Junction. I ran into CJ, who was my ultimate boss @ PF Chang's. We caught up and then he left us to hang out and sip our coffees.
Matt had a damn great time, but he had to head home. the rest of us followed shortly thereafter and grabbed a bite at Smoky Mountain Pizza in South Salt Lake. Had a great time. I love my friends. I can't wait to head to Torrey.
All in all, it's a great start to the season. And the changes to my bike make me very excited for the sport touring season to start
