The ride from the hotel to Greenway was not bad. Traffic was heavy at first but got progressively lighter and bike lanes became more prominent and wider as I rode out. All vehicles gave me plenty of elbow room. Another big plus!
A little tight but I've seen worse
Better bike lanes
Superb bike lane!

Anyone wearing a Crested Butte jersey has to be a great person!
Phil and I talked non-stop over the next hour of riding
Phil telling me about how he hit a deer while descending at 50 MPH.
Knocked him out but he got away with just surface scrapes (tough bones!) Not sure how the deer fared.
Beautiful scenic trail
Finishing up with long shadows
Thank you Elizabeth Mobley for picking up a jersey for your husband!
I hope he gets good use out of it!
Looks like a great trail and beautiful weather! Glad you could meet with so many people, must be a welcome change.

ReplyDeleteA great day with the locals and even the mayor. Sounds like a lot of fun.
ReplyDeleteOn to Kentucky! Back in CA it's Tahoe weekend. Today it is rainy (I'm a wimp) hoping for some fun rides with the gang over the next few days.
Dave, you are an inspiration!
