How long were you out in Colorado and where? If I go next year I'd love to bring my bike and do some riding. I saw plenty of riders in Rocky Mountain National Park. I was in shock at how many were out on 36 HWY (?) outside of Boulder on our way from Estes to Dillon as well. From a guy who has to take a good look at every bike I see, Colorado was overwhelming.
I drove down Friday and drove out after the ride on Saturday. (Had to be up in South Dakota the next day)

Here's my Strava link for the Triple ride:

I also did a real nice solo ride a month or two ago just out of Boulder. Here's the Strava and Garmin course if you (or anyone on here really) are looking for a good climb:

Edit: Also by good climb I mean, the "Super James" HC segment that's part of it was flagged as hazardous on Strava.
