Hello cyclists,

My name is Bryan, and a few buddies and I are going to ride to Denver here on Tuesday. I am going to the bike shop for more help, but for right now, I was wondering if anyone could point me to a website or give me some good directions for what trails to use and whatnot to get from Colorado Springs to Denver.

I know it is possible, I hear of cyclists doing it often.

We are 3 guys, and we ride BMX Freestyle, but we are wanting to do this to prove it can be done without gears and such.

Any information or help will be greatly appreciated.

I posted on bikely.com the route I used several times to get between those cities in the late 1980s. Warning: I like freeways where legal. Will post under Colorado Springs to Denver. The Denver Bicycle Touring Club would know which parts of the South Platte bike path are open these days.
