After amazing recovery in Boulder with Tristan and Brendan the time has come to take off again. I’d like to emphasize how great these guys were for me - took me under their roof just because I was lucky enough to meet their mom up on the Washington Pass like a month ago. ❤️ I had a blast in Boulder and it was like a 5star hotel experience for me. Truly amazing. Recovered not only physically but also mentally. Thanks guys you are my MVPs!

While resting I realized that there is plenty of cool passes Colorado has to offer and I’d rather do that instead of tackling Kentucky’s plains. That’s why I went back to Lyons through Boulder Canyon (up) and Lefthand Canyon (down although I wish I went up - seems like a lovely climb). I was supposed to do a third one today but got caught by the rain so decided to call it a day. The pass is not going anywhere anyways.

Plan for upcoming days: Saint Vrain Canyon, Peak to Peak Highway, Golden loop (Coral Creek Canyon & Golden Gate Canyon), Mt Evans Supposedly this is crème de la crème of Boulder cycling. 😎 Nice!
