Hello Summit Bikers,
Last week's ride on Bear Creek was near perfect, with warm temps and sunny skies.
Next week's ride, May 20, will be the Green Mountain Reservoir. The start of the ride is at the intersection of Route 9 and Heeney Road, approximately 20 miles north of Silverthorne. Plan to be ready to ride at 9:30 am. It looks to be cool at the start, so wear layers. Most of the parking is on route 9 at the intersection with Heeney Road. Be careful crossing route 9 as it is a busy road. Heeney Road is not very busy, but it is a road with some traffic and people are encouraged to ride single file near the shoulder. We ride around the reservoir on the West side and return the same way. This is the only Summit County ride with rolling hills as you ride on the west side of the reservoir. Pay attention as there are some potholes and a rough spot or two.
No picnic this week but do one soon.
Hope to see you there.
Ride safe!
John Bowyer
