Hello Summit Bikers,
Next weeks ride, June 28 will be to either Montezuma, A-Basin or Loveland Pass. We will meet at the Dillon Amphitheater Parking lot ready to ride at 9:30 am. I suggest avoiding the rec path through Keystone as more tourist may make it 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 (groups often gather back up in River Run, since this is convenient for bathroom and water) to Montezuma Road and to Montezuma. Anyone not familiar with this route should let the me know so we can match you up with another rider. Please do not gather on the road at the end of Montezuma Road. When you turn around in Montezuma to return stay off to the right side of the road. For those who want to do a little more ride out to Keystone Ranch on return (I was informed although it has been chipped sealed it is not bad, although I urge caution). I will have the picnic supplies so bring a sandwich, something to share and your drink. Hope the weather is as good as it was today. Please wear name tags.
As a reminder this Wednesday is Ride To Work or Wherever Day in Summit. A number of locations in Summit County will have breakfast items and most will have bike techs available. Locations will be open between 7:30 and 10:30. Locations include Frisco Historical Park and upper County Commons; Dillon at intersection of Amphitheatre and Recpath; Silverthorne Pavilion Patio; Breckenridge Blue River Plaza; Summit Cove Intersection of Swan Mt Road and Six.
There will be no ride the following week, as it is July 4 weekend and the County normally is very crowded. Be very careful if you do plan to ride over the Fourth.
Ride Safe and Enjoy!
John Bowyer
