Birthday Trip

Posted by: Becca
Kyle's birthday present from me was a bike/leaf peeping trip. Is it selfish to give someone a trip that you then get to tag along on? Pretty smart if you ask me! We went to Carbondale, which is located between Glenwood Springs and Aspen. We stayed at the Red Rooster Ranch.

When we woke up Saturday morning everything was covered in snow! Our ride was chilly when we started, but it warmed up nicely.

We rode up McClure Pass.

We replenished lost calories at Town, a restaurant in Carbondale. I had the butternut squash enchiladas.

Kyle had the teres major, horseradish tater tots, creamed kale, and crispy onions.

The next day, we rode up Independence Pass. A rainy late summer and early fall have delayed the leaves, so there wasn't much color to see. Bummer. Notice the snow. Snow in September, double bummer.
