Tour of Utah

The Tour Of Utah is a really cool 5 day stage race in Utah. This year we were lucky to play a small part in the race. Our neighborhood hosted an amateur team and we had 2 of the racers stay at our house. Sean and Kennett stole Dane and Ian's hearts from day one. They stayed with us for 8 days and when they had to leave the kids were close to tears and wanted to boys to live with us forever! Sean and Kennett were so great with the kids and never acted annoyed (even if they were) with all their questions and silliness.
Because we had racers stay with us, (and the director of the race is our friend and neighbor Karen Weiss), we were able to snag VIP tickets to the events. We chose to go to the criterium race in Park City and the finish line the final day at Snowbird. Both days were fabulous. It is really amazing to see how hard these guys ride! They are definitely not joking around!

It was a great experience and hope we can host again next year!
