07_14_2011 Mountain Biking near Nederland/Eldora

Dave here...I decided to get up high for a mountain bike ride I'd not done before. Starting in Nederland, I headed up to the tiny town of Eldora and from there followed Forest Service "Road" 505 for about 10 miles to the Caribou area NW of Nederland.

This ride covers some pretty challenging rocky 4-WD terrain and gets as high as 10,300 feet in elevation. There are some very nice views and a fair number of flowers.

It was good to do a new ride, but much of the riding was somewhat abusive. Large rock obstacle kind of stuff. Still, it beats a day in the cube farm! :)
