Cottonwood Pass

Another lovely Friday afternoon ride; this one was about 75ish miles and started from the house over Cottonwood pass to Gypsum through Glenwood canyon and back to Carbondale. As soon as I got to Gypsum it started dumping rain; I rode in blinding rain for about 15 miles in a wool jersey with arm warmers, spandies and knee warmers then it stopped while I was in the canyon until I was about 2 miles from Glenwood. Then the gods dropped the rain hammer of cats and dogs for the 12 miles back to home. In Glenwood, 7-11 coffee and hot dogs never tasted so good or provided so much warmth.

Sorry the photo quality is bummerish

where to begin...

well these photos are from a dirt and road ride in April that started at my house, went over the crown, to the top of old Snowmass, over Watson Divide, to Woody Creek, then Aspen and returned the same way. this ride full on kicked my ass as its about 85 miles with around 5500' of climbing. enjoy.
