Classic: Monarch Crest to Silver Creek
S-House and I and the ladies camped out in Buena Vista this weekend, and then headed a bit further south for one of the most spectacular rides around. The weather threatened all day, but held out until mile 25 or so, after we were safely below treeline. About 4 hours after starting, we arrived back at the meeting point soaked, muddy, and all smiles. Especially since we had warm pizzas waiting there thanks to the wives!

Buffalo Creek!
Met S-house at Buffalo Creek on Saturday for a mountain bicycle ride. I've been hearing many good things about the Buffalo Creek trail system, and the trails exceeded their reputation. One word y'all - smooth, flowing, fun singletrack EVERYWHERE! Oh yeah, the CO Trail is part of the mix as well. The Buffalo Creek fire burned 11,900 acres in 1996. Part of the Buff Creek trail system runs right through the burn area. If perfect singletrack isn't enough, riding through a burn zone (on perfect singletrack) just makes this ride that much more interesting. Oh, and dispursed (FREE!) camping less than 1/2 mile from the CO Trail and multiple Buff Creek trailheads. My new favorite within two hours of Denver metro. I'm going back for more when the aspens are peaking - the more, the merrier!

Nedication!
Finally got a dose of Nedication yesterday. Debaser prescribed three hours of West Magnolia trails, starting at Ned High. It was three hours of twisty singletrack goodness, with one nasty jeep road climb added in to remind me of how little I've been riding lately. I think I might have to self-prescribe a few more doses of Nederland riding - especially when the Aspens start turning yellow in a few weeks! Anyone, anyone? -MK
