Ride start was 8 am for the 100 milers. Good thing was there was night before reg packet pick-up in SLC. Hat sales were the same morning. Jersey sales were via active.com and were part of the reg packet pickup.
About 85 miles from SLC to Wellsville. Freeway all the way.
Yellow, as I recall we headed north along the valley till we took a sharp turn east to go through a pass into the Cache Valley. Are there more hotels/motels out there about where we turned? Was that Bountiful? What was that town? I was just following the 5 cars with bikes so I didn't really notice.
If I took Amtrak, I'd be going out on Thursday also. If you don't need to ship your bike via Fed-Ex or UPS, you can leave on Sunday. The one good thing about Amtrak is you should be able to sleep a lot.
Also, remember that if Bubba can haul several bikes, flying and then renting a multiple passenger car becomes much more fiscally reasonable.

Adding that in an SUV with bikes on the back, we drove from SLC to Davis in 10 and a half hours including puppy and gas stops. Bubba doesn't take any other breaks. Towing a trailer will take him longer.
