    I've got to give credit where credit is due. I would not be able to pedel up Squaw pass let alone Mt. Evens.

    With that said, I loath bicyclist... they're like the motorcycle's pompus cousin that no one likes to talk about.

    Most of the time they're not a problem, when they ride single file on the right. The problem of course is a lot of them don't. I've been stuck behind a pack of flying down squaw pass or Devil's gultch. When they're on a down hill they can hit 60-70mph and basically be slow enough that I want to pass them but moving fast enough to make passing difficult.

    Also, the USA ProCycle challange starts again in August. Looks like they'll be around Aspen and Monarch a lot for that week.
