The Bike Ride Adventure!!
We had an awesome adventure on our Bike Ride in Sun Vallley!! It started off like any other normal sunny day! We rented bikes and were off for a 15 mile one-way ride to Hailey, ID. It was a fairly easy ride, really pretty and enjoyable but then again it was mostly down hill. We had a great lunch and then about two or three miles into our return trip - uphill - it started to get darker and we were hearing thunder. Mike and I decided to just pedal as fast as we could and try to beat the storm!! It started getting darker and darker and the thunder was louder and louder and we then knew we wouldn't beat the storm but we were just trying to limit our time in the rain as much as possible!! Unfortunately, but not to our surprise, we ended up in the rain with about five or so miles left to go. I was fine with that, but I wasn't fine with the bubble-gum ball size hail that started shooting at us!!! When we got back we both had purple welts on our arms from getting hit so hard!!! It was really crazy, but we loved it!! We were both laughing so hard that we couldn't even pedal and it turned it a normal bike ride into an adventure that we will never forget!!
