Hello Summit Bikers,
After hearing from several of you concerning the flooding at Bear Creek Park, I contacted the park and found out the water is still rising. In the park many areas are closed and the bike path has several inches of water on the south side and totally impassable on the north side. Based on this I have decided to rethink our initial ride and change it to Idaho Springs riding to Georgetown. Plan to meet at the parking lot behind the Buffalo Restaurant & Bar at 10 am ready to go. We plan to have lunch at the Buffalo Restaurant following the ride for those that would like to join us. (estimated around 12:30 pm).
To get to the start point head East on Route 70 and get off on exit 239. Turn left and continue on Colorado Boulevard to 16th Ave and turn right. Two blocks down are some large parking lot (close to I70). Turn into the lot on the left.
Hopefully, the rain will hold off for us and things will get better for biking.
John Bowyer
