Today's easy ride after a week full of racing. Did nearly 70 miles of XC MTB racing on Friday, so it was nice to get some mellow road miles in. A couple of the pictures show why I'm a fan of wide road tires...

gorgeous. monitor pass? *edit...yah...saw the other thread after my response. have only driven over monitor pass (once but semi-slowly with obvious purpose) to preview. that longish upper, flattish/rolling part is the giveaway.

The 24% sign, I'd recognize that anywhere. That's Ebbetts Pass. Is it already open?
The other photos clearly are Monitor Pass, both sides.
Time for a road trip!

Monitor pass is open. Ebbetts is still officially closed, although the intel is that it's passable by bike to the top. I didn't ride Ebbetts on this ride, I just rode both sides of Monitor.
