Peterson road turns into Airport Rd.
Here's a map of the area.
Here's the other route that will take you to the Cherry Creek bike path from Palmer Lake. It includes about a half mile of riding on the shoulder of I-25 but that's not horrible. If you do the satellite view you can see how to access the path at Stroh Road. To me this route is preferable to US85 or CO83.
