I rode down Vail Pass in Colorado on the bike trail to Edwards. It was spring so the streams and rivers were flowing. Even saw a waterfall or two above Vail. It was and amazing ride I highly recommend. Even saw deer and a few hardcore riders going up the hill.
The gondola at Vail takes bikers and hikers up the mountain during Summer. I did it once with my mountain bike and rode down the mountain. This is another great treat for anyone who has never been to Vail in the summer. Ride down in the morning and have lunch in Vail.
