Looks like Black Hawk is still breaking the law. There is no alternate "within 450 feet" of banned streets Selak and Black Hawk. Their alternate route only works for the Main Street bicycle ban.

Black Hawk Mayor David Spellman recalled that Bicycle Colorado “wanted to disparage Black Hawk and say unsavory things about Black Hawk, and through their website, sent their message around the world – they can do the same thing with this.” Cyclists who enter the prohibited areas will be ticketed. “There will be no warning tickets issued,” Spellman stressed. Hoffmann suggested a copy of the approved ordinance be sent to Bicycle Colorado “and have them notify their people.” The council agreed. “Word travels quickly when they want it to,” the mayor concluded.
Looks like Black Hawk government is just as anti-bicycle as they were before they got slapped down.
