Description

I’ve always wanted to take the kids down the Provo River Parkway trail. I thought it would be fun to start at Bridal Veil Falls and ride down into Provo. The trouble with that is that you need a shuttle (no way my kids would make it back up the canyon yet). My sister recommend we try the lower part of the trail and ride from Provo to Utah lake. It was great fun: shaded, no streets to cross, ducks, cows, and horses on the way.
