Virgin River, north of Hurricane, Utah
We wanted to do some biking around Hurricane today, so we rode back up to the Red Cliffs Desert Reserve. We didn’t get too far into the reserve though before the trail ended at a fence marked “No Trespassing” so we turned around there and rode back to the other side of the park to where it overlooks the Virgin River.
Enid’s bike was not shifting properly, so every time she wanted to change gears she had to stop and force her shifters to a new gear. When we got back to the trailer I tried to fix them, and got the one (the front sprockets) to shift fairly well. The rear shifter wasn’t working well, and when Enid took the bike for a short ride to try out my repair, the rear one totally seized up. I tried for a long time to fix it, but finally gave up and looked on the Internet to find a bike shop. Fortunately I did, Over the Edge Sports, where we got a repair part for the rear shifter (though as they didn’t have one for the front shifter, I couldn’t fix that). After quite a bit of trial and error I finally got the new shifter properly installed, so Enid once again has a working bike.
