Waterton Canyon Friday Bike Ride

The Waterton Canyon trail provides a beautiful ride along the South Platte River. It's home to a plethora of wildlife (Rocky Mtn Bighorn Sheep, deer, rattlesnakes, and I've even seen a bear), and because the road is wide and flat, it is a pretty easy 6-mile ride up to the dam. From the dam, we'll continue up to the single track (start of the Colorado Trail), and ride up to the bench (maybe a mile and a half). If folks want to ride a bit more, we can, otherwise, we'll turn around and head back.

Since this is an out and back, folks can ride as far as they want and then turn around. Since the road is gravel, you need either a mountain bike or a gravel bike. If you are planning on doing the single track, a mountain bike would be best. Reach out with any questions.

The parking lot for the trailhead is quite large and this early, there should be plenty of parking; I'll be at the crosswalk at 7:25am. We will begin riding at 7:35.

If you sign up, please show up unless you change your RSVP (even if you have to change your RSVP at the last minute). I completely understand that things come up.
