Cycling across the mountains of Colorado

After bikepacking down the GDMBR from Canada, I turned off the Divide at Breckenridge and cycled west through the mountains of Colorado, following part of the Colorado Trail and a combination of singletrack, dirt roads, and pavement, on my way across to Grand Junction. I also got to sample a bit of the Rolling Horse and Kokopelli bikepacking routes, whilst taking in places such as Leadville, Aspen, and Crested Butte.

Colorado was one of my favourite states in the US, second only to Utah, and it’s an area I’d really like to get back to, as I feel like I only skimmed the surface during my ride through.
