Battle To Orem BST Figure Eight

Saturday the 6Th after watching Kris win his second football play off game I decided to go on a ride since it was almost 70 degrees.
I drove to Grove Creek trail head and discovered I didn't have a pump to take with me so I went to Timpanogos Cyclery in P.G. and bought one instead of wasting 30 more minutes driving home and wasting more time hunting for one. Turns out that Will had borrowed it and forgot to return it. Now we each have our own pump.

After buying the pump I decided to go to Battle Creek Trail head instead of Grove Creek. I went South on BST around the water tanks in Orem and up Betty to the Altar. Then I rode down the GWT #033 to Pipeline, over to Nunns Park, up Bridal Veil BST to Squaw Peak Road, down paved Squaw Peak to the Race Course, up to the Altar again via Fretty up to #051 down Dry Canyon and back to Battle Creek on BST. 20 miles mostly single track with 2 miles of pavement and two or three miles of dirt road.
