Cruz'N Colorado Backroads
Ride Colorado in 5 days
This ride covers some of the scenic roads in Colorado. I started my ride in Canon City and ended back in Canon City. I kept the miles around 200 miles a day to allow time to enjoy the scenery. You could easily modify this route to include the Million Highway and Colorado Monument State Park.
