classic friday


Kenosha Pass to Georgia Pass. Since we had the day yesterday to ride, we decided to hit the CO trail starting at Kenosha Pass and avoid the weekend crowds. Little did we know, there was an annual relay race going on that put quite a few runners on a section of the trail but luckily it was mostly on the way back and it was fun to give some encouragement to the runners. The race takes relay teams from Idaho Springs to Basalt so quite the distance. The lucky ones get to run this leg of trail.

The weather was perfect!

Runners head down off Georgia Pass under the low lazy clouds.

The leaves are turning.

It was nice to hit this one sans crowd. There were maybe a handful of cyclists out there all day and most stayed close to Kenosha. Next time, I would like to round trip this all the way to Breckenridge and back.
