I did a little recon in Summit County for you. Just a 55 mile tune up for the Copper Triangle.

I started in Breckenridge, rode over Hoosier Pass to South County, headed up 285 to Boreas Pass, then went over Boreas back to the start. I thought I'd get you all pumped up for your trip to Colorado with some pictures I took.

Enjoy!

Picture 1: Start of Hoosier Pass--the sign means "pain ahead"
Picture 2: This road goes up fast
Picture 3: Top of the Pass
Picture 4: View towards South Park from Hoosier
Picture 5: View of South Park from Como
Picture 6: The next Pass to ride over
Picture 7: The start of the climb over Boreas Pass
Picture 8: Top of Boreas, looking toward Breck
Picture 9: Off the side of the road
Picture 10: Old railroad water tower
Picture 11: looking down at Breck...the road you see was the start of my ride

After 20 miles on that dirt road everything was a bit dusty and I don't think Bruce will get his new Bedford that dirty.

You can drive up, though. Do an easy ride around Breck and then drive up to the top of the pass. There are some great views up there.
