A Beautiful Ride to Golden - Peaks to Plains Trail - Lunch at Cafe 13

Hello Ladies!
E-Bikers and Advanced Classical Bike Riders
Please Note: Due to the steep hills and riding pace, this ride is recommended for E-bike riders and advanced traditional (non-electric) cyclists.

Let's meet at Prospect Lake at 11:00 AM, with wheels rolling by 11:15 AM!
We'll head to Golden and enjoy the beautiful Peaks to Plains Trail along Clear Creek. From Golden, we'll continue west along the scenic trail, passing the Clear Creek Trailhead before making our way to the Huntsman Trailhead. The final 1.5-mile section has officially opened just within the last few days, making this an especially exciting ride!
The scenery along this stretch is absolutely stunning, and I'm excited for everyone to experience it!

On our way back, we'll head to Café 13 in Golden for a delicious lunch. It's just a few bike-friendly blocks from the trail. They have a wonderful outdoor patio and several convenient options for parking our bikes. We can lock them up at a nearby bike rack or, if we prefer, keep them close by at the outdoor patio tables. Indoor dining is also available. And best of all, the food is fantastic! It's a great place to relax, enjoy a delicious meal, and visit together.
After lunch, we'll hop back on our bikes and enjoy the trail for our return ride.

A Couple of Safety Reminders:
Please send me your cell phone number, and I'll share mine with you so we can stay in touch in case plans change.
Also, please make sure your emergency contact's name and phone number are clearly written inside your helmet. Hopefully, we will never need it, but it's always good to be prepared!

It's going to be a beautiful ride with gorgeous scenery, great food, and even better company! I'm looking forward to a fun day with all of you!
See you there!
