This may be a fun ride. Still Water Dam

I wonder if the road is open above Heber and Timber Lakes to go in through this way and make a loop back to Heber?

My daughter's yard is in, I have no more vacations planned until September. The only thing I have is a weekly ride with Harrison on the dirtbikes so I am game to go for a ride. I still have some parts at some point I need to toss on it. I bought a Seat Concepts seat and I have a GIVI Adjustable Windscreen. Supposedly, you can get rid of wind buffeting, or at least the majority of it.

Last year I rode the White Rim Trail and came around a corner a little hot and my front tire lost traction. On my way to the ground my boot buckle or something put a little tear in my seat cover and it bugs me so I got a seat last year and just need to put it on. My advice, don't tip these things over if you have bad shoulders. If you do, make sure you have someone with you. Just saying, its a whole lot better if someone is helping you lift these big girls up off the ground.

This looks awesome. I have good intel that the road over timberlakes is open all the way to wolf creek pass. Looks like it's 97 miles from my house, probably closer to 75 if you start from Heber.

This is the route to take if the roads are clear of snow:

Kaysville to Upper Stillwater Reservoir

The dam spilling is for sure worth a visit. Pictures don't show it really well. The spillway is 600' wide.

Great minds come from Kaysville, isn't that right Corban? It would be good to know if the route through Brighton/Solitude was open, additionally, you keep going and go through Altamont and Tabiona on the way back. There is a dirt road that goes through the reservation but I'm only 1/8th Cherokee so I don't have a pass. I know the ride from Timber Lakes to the Reservoir is really pretty. I think it was Tabiona that I ate lunch at the last time I rode the route. Anyway, sounds fun. Can anyone go during the week, early AM?

I can tell you that Guardsmans Pass, White Pine Canyon, and every paved road normally closed in winter, are now open.

I rode East Canyon, Trappers loop, Monte Cristo, Mirror Lake Highway, White Pine Canyon, and Guardsmans Pass, today

One thing that has always annoyed me has been the buffeting from the wind while on the pavement which isn't very often but is necessary. I searched all over the old inter-web and found some pretty good reviews of this GIVI model AF7711 that is adjustable. I really liked the low, smoked look of the OE windscreen but It didn't do much for buffeting. The install was pretty straight forward and as always, I forgot to take before and during picture so I grabbed an old picture.

This windscreen is adjustable from a little over stock height to up to 5". It is contoured a little different and a little wider than the stock screen.

GIVI, the additional windscreen that is a toolless system allowing it to be raised and lowered. It is in the lowered position here.

Lowered position, just below the height of the mirrors

Raised position, just about even with the mirrors.
