Thirty Five for one of the toughest rides of the year was a great number, although we only had about 12 at the picnic.
Next week, August 19, we will ride to either Montezuma, A-Basin or Loveland Pass. We will meet at the Dillon Amphitheater, ready to ride at 9:30 am. There will not be a grill so plan to bring a sandwich, as well as a dish to share. As always bring whatever you want to drink.
I suggest avoiding the rec path through Keystone as things are very busy. The suggested way is to turn right on Elk Drive going through the fence to Keystone Ranch Road and going left through the River Run Area of Keystone to Montezuma Road and to Montezuma (Those biking to A Basin or beyond can rejoin route 6 at River Run). Please do not gather on the road at the end of Montezuma Road. Those planning to ride to Montezuma should include a ride out to Keystone Ranch. To do this addition pass the fence and continue on Keystone Ranch Road to the end. Return to the fence and ride back to the start. The goal is to get back to the picnic around noon.
Depending on where the work is taking place on route 6 we may not be doing that route, since the last update I read talked about shuttling bikers around the work zone.
Thanks to those wearing name tags. I forgot mine this week, but will try next week.
Ride Safe!
John
