through the communities of West Jordan, South Jordan, Riverton, Bluffdale, Herriman and Daybreak; along
the way we’ll pedal a wonderfully scenic 7.5 mile stretch of the Jordan River Parkway trail, enjoy the ambiance
of rural farm and ranch lands, spin through an expanse of protected wetlands, and circumnavigate Daybreak’s
Oquirrh Lake. This event has one official stop midway for warm-up drinks and sacks to regroup and socialize at
Beans & Brews. Meet Elliott (801-969-2846) at Taylorsville Recreation Center, 4948 South 2700 West, at 9:00am.
