It's time once again for our annual Alpine Loop Run, Raffle and Picnic. This is
BMCU's 17th annual trek up that familiar mountain. This year's run will be held
on Saturday August 21, 2004.
We will meet as usual at the southeast parking lot of the South Towne Mall at 9
am for a 10 am departure. Those of you from Utah County and south can meet up
with the group at the Chevron station in Highland around 10:30 am (Lucas Time).
There will be time for you to purchase raffle tickets before departure or you
can buy last minute tickets at the Heber picnic area. (or flag down Mary and
Larry Bishop at any time during the run if you have an overwhelming urge or
compulsion).
The run begins at the South Towne Mall, then moves on to the I-15 Frontage road
and then on to Utah Highway 92. This highway takes us east into American Fork
Canyon and past Timpanogos Cave. The road is no less steep this year than in
previous years. At the summit we drop down past Deer Creek Reservoir and into
Heber City. For the benefit of those whose cars didn't make it up the Canyon we
will meet in Heber at the park behind City Hall for lunch and the raffle.
Afterward we leave Heber, climb past the Jordanelle Reservoir and through
Francis, Kamas, Oakley, Peoa, Brown's Canyon and into Park City for our
traditional, TRIUMPH-ant (for those who made it) parade down Main Street. From
there we head out toward Kimball Junction and then toward home.
This event is our biggest of the year in both size and revenue generation.
Please purchase as many tickets as you can afford (we won't feel guilty if you
mortgage your house to buy tickets as long as you don't sell your British car.)
In addition to lots of British motor related items, we will have other exciting
prizes such as hotel stays and massage certificates (especially beneficial for
you non-Triumph drivers). If you or your company have anything to donate to our
raffle, please bring it along on the day of the run, or contact Larry Bishop
(Phone 801-558-5688, e-mail larrybishop2@comcast.net).
