That looks amazing! I doubt that we'll do it this year, but it's definitely on our radar for future years.

WOW!!! I've always wanted to do this ride, but they don't make gears low enough for me to drag my butt up mountain passes!
Seriously- I would love to do this one day. We went to RMNP last year and it was amazing!!!Check out my running blog: www.turtlepacing.blogspot.com

Hope you have no problems with high altitude. I turned gray and tingly going up the pass in a car.

I went to Breckenridge a few years ago for a reunion and did have a bit of altitude sickness. However, I plan to acclimate in Denver for a couple days before this ride! I am sure I will be a little short of breath!!! I am already excited and it is MONTHS away.

Can't believe that ride is so early in the year considering it's going over RMNP - the road over the top is closed from Labor Day to Memorial Day. June 19th isn't that far after Memorial Day. A great route, but even as a Colorado local, too many climbs for me (yet....)

I wish I could ride that far and that well by then! If anyone wants to get together and hang out in Denver beforehand, let me know. I can at least give the beer tour of Colorado 2011!
