However, my love riding my bike remains, and Today a dream was born for this summer: a trek through the beautiful Rockies from Boulder to Crested Butte, stopping along the way in destinations such as Estes Park, Winter Park, Frisco, and Buena Vista.
The trip will either happen in late June or early August. Here's links to maps of individual days:
Day 1: Boulder->Estes Park 64 miles, 6483 ft climbing, 3763 decent

Day 2: Estes Park->Winter Park 68 miles, 5630 ft climbing, 5052 decent

Day 3: Winter Park->Frisco 72 Miles, 2310 ft climbing, 2251 ft decent

Day 4: Frisco->Buena Vista 68 Miles, 3310 ft climbing, 4396 decent

Day 5: Buena Vista->Crested Butte (This is up for debate, the route i have on the map above might be dirt roads...)
If any of my buds that are reading this want to join in, let me know!
Peace.

Oh man!!! You guys keep coming up with reasons why I should be living in Colorado. Sounds amazing.
ps: Rode to the grocery today on the peugeot for the first time since we moved-- Vinings, GA is not biker friendly. But, it was beautiful outside and I felt like I was sticking it to the Atl. Take that, urban sprawl...
