Ben, my buddy from college, lives out in Boulder, Colorado. It’s a fantastic area for outdoorsmen and women. There are seemingly hundreds of trails, impressive 14-ers, several breathtaking national parks, and fantastic skiing in the winter. This past fall Ben bought his first motorcycle, but hasn’t used it much beyond tooling around town. When I heard this I immediately invited myself to visit him for a week so we could take some scenic rides.
The first ride I want to try out is the Peak to Peak Highway, which is part of the National Scenic Byway Program. The 55 mile long route winds its way through Rocky Mountain National Park, Golden Gate Canyon State Park, Arapaho and Roosevelt National Forests and more. Plus, it’s only a 2-3 hour ride, which should be manageable even for a beginner. The other surprise I have in store for him is leather motorcycle chaps in honor of his first real ride!
