Since we got the low level E-assist systems on our trikes we decided to try some over night or weekend touring. We headed South on CO. Hwy. 115 S. from Colorado Springs, CO. to Canon City, CO. 50 miles and spend the night at a motel. We stopped at the Coyote's Den in Penrose, CO. for lunch, then picked up CO. Hwy. 50 E into Canon City, ordered a pizza and kicked back for the evening after 2,400 ft. of Altitude Gain and some really mean Rumble Strips and even larger "Rumble Patches, (3x5 feet), that were a RPIA at times!!! We got up had a breakfast corosant and headed back up CO. 50 W. back to CO. 115 N. back to the Springs and home, 3,117 ft. of Altitude Gain and 90F temps. and sunny we felt a bit "fried to a crispy crunch", LOL but really enjoyed the ride and now have to figure out how we can AFFORD to do more these touring rides over the summer!
