I was on I-70 near Avon yesterday and saw some of the RTR riders. It's my understanding that the death occured
between Tenessee Pass and Minturn.

If so, I rode that stretch last week on a motorcycle, and the downhill switchbacks are pretty tricky. I came close to hitting
a bicyclist as he pulled out in front of me as I was going by and I was forced to change lanes. I've bicycled this stretch
several times over the years, but always uphill from Minturn to Leadville.

I've done RTR a couple of times, and never really enjoyed it due to so many people on the roads... many, if not most of them
oblivious to the dangers of mountain riding.

Last week near Redcliff (Leadville / Tennessee Pass to Minturn / Vail)
