Cartoon Characters Join Pro Cyclists to
Share Lessons on Health and Wellness in
Tour of Utah Children’s Book
SALT LAKE CITY, Utah (April 19, 2018) – The Sprint to the Finish Activity Book returns for a sixth edition to promote healthy lifestyles for elementary-aged children. The 32-page, full-color book is a collaborative effort by organizers of the Larry H. Miller Tour of Utah and event partner University of Utah Health. More than 50,000 free copies will be distributed in April to schools and youth organizations across Utah in the communities which will host a stage of the professional cycling event this summer from Aug. 6-12. An online version in PDF format is available for download at tourofutah.com.
The sport of cycling is used to illustrate lesson plans on geography, nutrition, safety and vocabulary. Children take an adventure across Utah with cartoon characters Mike and his friend Lucille, made popular in the Mike and The Bike children’s book series. The two characters explore the nine communities which will host the 2018 Tour of Utah, from St. George and Cedar City in the south to Salt Lake City and Park City in the north.
Photography and content also feature three professional cyclists who have competed in the race, including 2017 Tour of Utah champion Rob Britton (Alberta, Canada), who rides for Rally Cycling. Content for the booklet was also provided by two stage winners from the 2017 race -- Brent Bookwalter (Rockford, Mich.) of the BMC Racing Team, who won Stage 2, and Travis McCabe (Prescott, Ariz.) of UnitedHealthcare Pro Cycling, who won Stage 5.
"There's no question, winning last year’s Tour of Utah was the biggest result of my career and one of the best days of my life. The race really does mean a lot to me,” said Rally Cycling’s Britton, who was happy to provide his insights for the activity booklet and encourage children to be more active. "When I was younger, I was never any good at racing a bike. In fact, I was horrible! I loved RIDING my bike though, and I rode it a lot. Eventually, that passion has turned into a great career, and still to this day, I’m reminded of how amazing a simple bicycle is and where it can take you (both physically and mentally), no matter what the age. I’ve seen the world because I love to ride my bike.”
During race week of the Tour of Utah, children ages five to 12 can demonstrate pedal power and safe cycling skills in six locations for the Sprint to the Finish youth bicycle races. Complimentary registration is available at the University of Utah Health information tent in the KUTV 2 Healthy Living Expo during race week. Races will be held at six venues, using a section of the Tour of Utah race course. All participating children are required to bring their own bicycles and helmets. Details about expo locations, start/finish areas and race times will be available on the Tour of Utah website.

Tampa, FL - April 19, 2018 - Post-hardcore quintet LIMBS has shared the title track from their forthcoming debut full-length album Father's Son. Fans can stream the track, which originally premiered on Triple J Radio's short.fast.loud, here: youtu.be/fsPhyWVMJqQ. Father's Son will be released on April 27th, 2018 via UNFD. The record gives listeners a dark and brooding look at a young man's journey out of religion as he comes to terms with both his upbringing and his own actions. For more information or to pre-order the album, please visit: unfd.lnk.to/FathersSon.
On the new single, vocalist Chris Costanza shares: "This is not only the title track, but the first song written for the record. It's gone through numerous changes since it's initial inception, but the core has remained the same. This song was written after coming up with the inital concept for the full length about 3 years ago."
Originally formed in 2013 under a different moniker, LIMBS released their debut album entitled Dead Ends before undergoing a fairly drastic lineup change. After taking eight months for reformation, LIMBS regrouped and released their sophomore release, Admission, in late 2014, to copious amounts of positive feedback.
The following year LIMBS toured the DIY circuits relentlessly, dropping singles and gaining fans along the way. After a tour with Saosin, the band recorded a three song EP entitled SLEEP, which was mixed by Beau Burchell (Saosin) and mastered by Mike Kalajian, and was eventually re-recorded with Tim McTague (Underoath).
Flash forward to 2018 and LIMBS have found a new home with UNFD, where they will drop their debut album Father's Son on April 27. A conceptual album following a young man breaking free from his indoctrinated upbringing, the album explores the harm it causes and the strength in reclaiming your own life.
"It's loosely based off of some of my own personal experiences and feelings," explains frontman Chris Costanza. "It begins with the young man feeling distraught and angry after coming to some realizations about his upbringing and the harm it has done to both himself and others. It slowly turns inward as he reflects on himself and takes personal responsibility for his actions and deals with the aftermath of making such a drastic change in his life."
A brooding and cathartic album Costanza describes as "Norma Jean meets Radiohead," Father's Son came together with help from Tim McTague in the pre-production stages before moving on to record with Beau Burchell - the same team behind SLEEP.
As LIMBS - rounded out by Daniel Nelson (drums), Joshua Kowalski (bass), Jordan Hunter (guitar), and Tyler Martin (guitar) - prepare to spend the next five months criss-crossing the highways of America showcasing Father's Son with the likes of Underoath, Veil of Maya, and on the Vans Warped Tour, Costanza reflects on the life lessons expressed within the album.
"The biggest lesson I've learned is that love comes in many forms. Some people come at love from a religious standpoint, others from a spiritual standpoint, some from a more pragmatic place. But the most important thing I've realized is that (at least to me) it shouldn't matter where that love comes from. Seeing love in so many forms and from so many different viewpoints has been extremely eye opening for me and helped me broaden my view of love and how it's given/received. I think that's something I'll never stop learning."
