The marmots have emerged from their winter slumber, and are hungry for road salt. Old Fall River road is closed to motorized traffic at the moment, but the surface is a mess with all the construction going on. Still worth riding though.
I've got some thoughts on this one. - The Utah section, especially the first day, was rad. - 180mi without a turn. Also a tailwind nearly the entire time. - There's only a few ways over the continental divide in Northern Colorado, and Berthoud Pass might be my least favorite. But it is undeniably pretty. - Running into Mark made the start of 30 miles of multi-use path a lot more tolerable - The US36 bike path can take a hike.
Needed a 400k and didn’t want to do it the weekend before SLC-DEN. Clouds brought the drama.
A few riders on their first 300k. The group spread and regrouped but largely stuck together at a social pace. Tal's new Gallus, draped in a mix of fancy new parts and tasteful vintage bits, was extra sparkly on a sunny spring day
A corollary to the Flèche Vélocio, but held outside of Provence. This is the first time I've ridden this bike without fenders, but I wanted the extra tire volume. I didn't regret it: The lack of moisture along the front range has made the dirt roads sandy, washboarded and rather slow.
