Friday afternoon on a whim James and I decided to head west on our bikes for the weekend. We didn't even have our first stop in mind until about 10 minutes before we left. We spent the first nigh in Buena Vista, next moring we made Leadville and had breakfast there.
We spent the rest of the morning cruising around Turquiose lake and the surrounding area. I think we got up near 12 thousand feet at one point. Very rough roads and the bikes were getting anemic.
After that we shot across Tennessee pass on the way to Glenwood Springs.
We went rafting this morning and then shot home.
500 total miles in 2.5 days. Aside from James almost losing a muffler (he wanted it to fall off) we had no mechanical snags and only a few wrong turns. Great little weekend road trip.
