It's safe to ride but not pleasant. Try Riverdale when the glaciers melt. It's a nice quite country lane...for the most part. Shaded with cottonwoods, downhill (pretty fast
) to Brighton. It's still one of my three favorite rides. The other two are Valmont out of Boulder and Easley out of Golden. Cherryvale Road into Boulder is good too but not as shaded.
