About the ride
The Southern sections of the Colorado BDR below I 70 are epic and we want to take you there. This includes the high passes and historic mountain towns. We climb 14,ooo ft up the highest paved road in the US to the top of Mt Evans. Each night we stay in top shelf accommodations including Arrowhead Ranch near Cimarron and Mt Princeton hot springs.
We begin in Golden and travel to Buena Vista, Lake City, Cimarron Nathrop and back to Golden. This is a level 3 ride with level 1 bypasses at relaxed pace.
This is a level 3 ride equivalent to a BDR intermediate at a relaxed pace leaving time to check out Moab and relax by the pool.
