Shortened Ride
So now I'm thinking because of time and stuff, the first leg of the Three Park Ride will be only from Boulder to Escalante.
As a bonus, though, I'll add in a hike to Peekaboo & Spooky Canyons.

Centuries I Have Done
Here is a list of the Century (100 miles+) rides I have done:
1993 - Rode around the Oquirrhs with my friend Dennis. The first century for both of us. 110 miles
1994 - My first ULCER ride (around Utah Lake). Dennis and Marsha rode the 70-mile route. We finished about the same time.
1995 - ULCER again. This time Marsha did the whole thing. Our friend Ashok also rode with us.
1996 - Three in a row! This time I rode the ULCER with Bob and Adam Dern. Fastest time ever -- a little over 5 hours. Earlier in the year the three of us also rode around the Oquirrhs.
1997 & 1998 - Although I didn't ride any centuries these years, I did quite a few 70 & 80 milers.
1999 - Cycle Salt Lake Century. I had done the 70 mile route a couple of times. This was my first 100 mile one. The winds on Antelope Island dried me out considerable which made the last 30 miles agony.
2000 - ULCER again. By myself.
2001 - oops!
2002 - ULCER solo one more time.
2003 - Ah! One of my favorite rides. Did a solo-solo ride from our house to Malad Idaho. 108 miles!
2004 - 2006 - Like a fool, I was playing more golf than riding. What a waste!
2007 - Back in the saddle again! My first multi-century season. Kicked off with the Tour de Cure in May, which was pretty awful, then rode the ULCER in August with Cassie -- her first (and only)!
2008 - Did my first ride from Logan to Salt lake City, while Cassie and Marsha rode Little Red Riding Hood.
2009 - Logan to SLC again. Fun ride.
2010 - Rode the Cycle Salt Lake Century with Bob, Adam & Christine. Rode the ULCER with Bob. Rode from SLC to Logan. That's right, three centuries!
2011 - Big year again. Kicked off with the Cycle Salt Lake Century, with the Derns (including Cathy), the MS 150, which actually was 100 miles first day and 75 the second, and did an unsupported century with Marsha and Suzanne Johnson in August.
If you add them all up, you get 18 centuries! Funny thing is, I fell like I've missed one or two in there, especially during the lost years.
