My wife and I just finished our first short tour. 100 miles of Colorado and spring time camping. We met some great characters took our time to enjoy the sights and sounds. I found that from a bike your perspective is so much different then in a car, we loved every minute of it and can wait to do it again.

Thanks for letting me share!

Nice tatoos on your legs! That looks like a fun trip you had.

Looks like a fun trip! Great weather and beautiful scenery.

Nice glasses.

Nice photos!
How did you mount the water bottle? I looks like it's kind of clamps.

chuckle, I was thinking the same thing! (actually I was thinking they looked kinda dorky, but writing that isnt meant to be mean. Hey, you had a fun time, so good on you. Plus Im naturally kinda dorky)

... the glasses looked perfectly normal to me.

Those are great pics and thanks for sharing them. It's obvious you both had a great time. I'm wondering which direction your trip went--clockwise or counter?

My good friend Paul and I started a little tour from Sedalia a couple years ago and headed up Rt. 67 to Deckers. What an "exciting" way to begin a tour! (It's a beastly climb.) From Deckers, however, we headed north toward Buffalo Creek and found ourselves in Montana a few weeks later!

So, what's next on your bike touring to-do list?

This Forum should have a warning lable:

Warning: Bike touring is addictive!

Good job, and nice photos.

Nice pics; what kind of bikes did you ride?

Great photos and on C&V bikes also. Very nice. Besides the Schwinn what's the other bike?

We set out from woodland park I tried to give my wife the down hill experience even though it was a hard clime from deckers to rampart road.

She was on a 80s Tekara Tribute. I did learn my lesson if we are going to keep this up smaller chain rings on the front might help, they're stock ten speed gearing.
