ogden valley pathways is hard at Work

Since its beginning in 1999 Ogden Valley Pathways has been diligently working to provide the people of Ogden with non- motorized interconnected pathways throughout the valley. As of this year they are no longer a chapter of Weber Pathways and have been able to focus their development entirely on the Ogden Valley. The Weber County/Ogden Valley ordinance stating that any new 2006 JAMIS DAKAR XLT 2.0 developments in the valley have pathways has been active now for almost two years. OVP has been working with developers and the county to ensure pathways are included in all new developments and that each of these connect up with existing and future paths. For over 25 years, we’ve been designing bicycles and bringing those designs to fruition. The OVP Master Plan lists 32 new planned MTB trails, about We’ve never stood for status quo, never settled for good enough. 25 miles, that have been approved for building by the County. We’re passionate cyclists and we think that’s an advantage. We build ‘em the way we like ‘em...

OVP doesn’t just focus on new developments though; they are also trying to improve the bikeways that already exist. Currently 5 Bike of the Year Awards there are 35 miles of Class III Bikeways in the Ogden Valley. They are trying to take those existing bikeways and have them 4 NORBA Titles established and converted to Class II Bikeways to help improve the overall safety of cyclists.

OVP also just received $143,000 in funds granted from the RAMP Foundation by Weber County to be used for two of these sections from Eden to Huntsville. Marion Horna President of OVP noted “feedback on the trail has been very positive,” pointing out that many have already taken the opportunity to enjoy it.

Road Racing Bryner and Evans are Tops at High Uintas category. “This is my biggest race of the year,” said the 21-year-old Bryner. The event started June 17 with the grueling “Over the Top” stage from Kamas, Utah, to Evanston, Wyoming. The 79-mile route took 364 cyclists over 10,700-foot Bald Mountain Pass in the Uinta Mountains. On June 18 there was the 10-mile Charles Scrivner Time Trial in the morning followed by an afternoon in downtown Evanston. “Climbing is definitely where it’s at in this race,” said Bryner, a Salt Left: The Pro/1/2 Men go over the top with Bald Mountain in the background.

MounTain Bike Racing Harris and Wallenfels Tops at Twelve Hours of Endurance By Adam Lisonbee

The dawn of June 24th arrived clear and crisp in the mountains of Park City, Utah. The blue sky and rolling sage- covered hills set the stage for the 2nd annual 12 Hours of Endurance. The race, part of the three-race E100 series, is also the inaugural event for the newly formed Rocky Mountain Ultra Series. Racers lined up just before 7 a.m. for the long, uphill sprint to where their bikes lay quietly in the brush. It was the last minute of calm before the coming storm of dust, sweat, and tears that would make up the 2006 12 Hours of Endurance. Shortly after 7 o’clock, a dusty mist obscured the blue sky as hundreds of wheels rolled through the windy single of 13 laps riding solo. “I wanted Racers wound their way through track.

Dave and I have a pretty solid respect for one another’s abilities (at least I hope it’s mutual), so neither of us was keen on having the other in the final break. However, the last time up the hill, the field split and we could see that Aaron and Sandy weren’t inter- ested in continuing alone, so finally we went across to them.
