Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

It's part of the Dirty Bismarck loop near Boulder. If you do a google image search for "dirty bismarck mtb" you'll get an idea of the various types of terrain/conditions.

Rim Rd., above Valdez, NM, about a half mile from my house. The road up to Taos Ski Valley flows up the valley from the notch on the left.
