This was one of two for me. I was visiting near Winter Park, CO (USA) and got to explore the dirt roads. Not many people or cars. Peaceful and great scenery. Very fun and wonderful weather. Got to try out using my new SP Connect phone mount + OSMAnd for navigation. Can recommend for sure.
Let's see pics or hear stories from your rides, folks. Where did you ride? What amazing things did you see?
If sharing a picture from the past weekend is allowed, here's mine - I went from my home at the extreme north of Bogotá all the way to the south, a sector that is stigmatized as "dangerous" (ironically, where I live there's kind of the same stigma) and went down a town called Une, the oldest in this department (or state, if you will), where my dad, parents and brothers lived when he was a kid - you have to go from +3200 to ~2300 meters above sea level, all in ~11 kilometers or so. This picture was taken at the lowest point of the ride, so please excuse me for the shitty quality of it - my hands were numb after pressing the brake levers for pretty much all of the descent, which was a pretty shitty road, as much of the countryside roads here. Maybe a thing for a gravel or mtb bike, but still somehow I managed to do it and it was peaceful with almost no cars whatsoever.
Oh and that was just the beginning, the ride back to the top was no stroll through the park either - it rained all though and through and got freezing to the top - but it was really great. I still can't believe i could do it.
Not shitty pic at all. Thanks for sharing! I usually forget to take pics on my rides 'cause I'm so busy enjoying the views.
Heaven!
