I reach the top of Mt. Evans to find very cold temperatures, a stalling bike and mountain goats. This was the best location I visited throughout my whole trip.
The roads get so steep that I just turn off my bike and coast down for about 10 minutes. It is very eerie riding without hearing engine noise, but very cool at the same time. Just random thoughts in this one.
Taking a ride on an old back road I read about.
Smokers make for bad hikers. I give up on a hike and decide to continue riding.
No description does justice to these sights. Talking about the beautiful scenery and the ride.
About 12,000 feet up in the Rockies. Many beautiful sights in this video.
In the Rocky Mountain National Park recapping the previous day’s ride and talking about my plans for the day.
I talk about how comfortable my 650 is for touring and about cold weather gear that the guy at the last gas station told me about.
I meet another rider at a gas station who has ridden from Alaska. One of most interesting people I met along the way.
