COLORADO

Just got back from a fantastic week with the whole family in Leadville, CO. It was a great trip, including a couple beautiful runs, a swim in the warm Leadville pool, a couple bike rides (the following pictures from from a 65-70 mile ride to Independence Pass), cross training via canoe paddling, and climbing Mt. Massive - all of which were fueled by tons of good pizza, ribs, salads, and subs courtesy High Mountain Pies,

The view after a short section of a long climb. I came up along the road you can see.

Same spot as the first shot, but looking to the left. You can see where the road turns and heads uphill.

Me.

The old highway 24 coming out of Leadville. It was pretty much abandoned, and great to ride on for 5 miles or so.

A reservoir viewed through my spokes.

Same reservoir, sans spokes.

Twin Lakes.

Uphill, to where I took the first couple pictures.
