Sometimes we feel sorry for ourselves living in Steamboat and this spring’s weather (or lack of spring) has caused some frustration for outdoor enthusiasts. On Sunday however, we awoke to a beautiful day and I decided to go for a long road bike ride with my buddy Hans. We rode a fabulous 55 mile loop that runs out a country road to the coal mine and then heads to Oak Creek over what is called the “three bitches”, 3 long, steep hill climbs. After Oak Creek, it heads back to Steamboat on another quiet country road. What a great ride! I think we saw more animals (deer, antelope, cranes, hawks, fox and coyotes) than we saw cars. You don’t need EPO to feel good out here!
