Mini-Me #4: Springville to Genola

50/C/3-4/d
This ride starts at the same place and time as the Springville to Nephi super series, but we’ll just call it Springville to Genola since that’s how far it goes. It is a 50 mile loop into Genola from Lincoln Beach road that returns on the east side of the mountain through Benjamin. Regroup for lunch or snacks (bring some) at Genola Park. There are no services along the way. The pace will be moderate; the route is mostly flat to mildly/moderately hilly. It is fairly flat to Lincoln Beach road, then has some rollers until it drops into Genola (one hill gains about 100 feet; another about 200). The biggest climb (300 feet) is from Genola to the east side of the mountain. From the top, you get a very nice downhill, then pretty much flat riding the rest of the way back.
Meet at: the Cracker Barrel in Springville (460 S 2000 W). Take the I-15 southern Springville exit (#260).

You’ve had a chance to enjoy the club picnic. You’re full of food, fat and happy. Now how about a nice ride on Antelope Island to burn off some of those calories while the sun sets over the lake and the full moon rises over the mountains? Maybe the coyotes will be out to watch. Mini-Me at Night? Oh, yeah. Bring a headlight and taillight.
