Must Do Bike Rides in the Vail, Colorado area!

Last week I was in the Vail, Colorado area and did some road bike rides. There are a couple of rides I did that are worth mentioning and are Must Do Rides if you are ever in the area.

One ride is the ride from Minturn, Co to Leadville, Co and back. It is an awesome ride! Check out the link below.

Another great ride is a ride called the Copper Triangle which is a loop the goes through Vail, Minturn and Leadville. It is a tough ride with tons of climbing and 3 major passes.  Check out the link below.

You will not be disappointed by going on either ride. Bring some money, put on the sunscreen, bring a few layers in case a storm rolls in and Ride-Strong!

Wildflower Triathlon Bike Course – Must Do Bike Ride

This past weekend I was at the Wildflower Triathlon which is just west of Paso Robles, California. If you are ever in the area the bike course is worth the ride.

The bike ride has a little bit of everything; beautiful scenery, flats, rollers, good climb, killer descent, and good roads.

Below is the profile of the bike course.

At about mile 35 there is a bridge you will cross. The bridge has a metal floor and is slippery. Make sure you slow down and enter the bridge head on to avoid road rash other wise you may need our “road rash bike crash kit.”
