RTR 2016 – Day 2: Aspen to Copper Mountain

Source: Garmin Connect

Day 2, at 83 miles, was almost twice as long as Day 1.  We went southeast out of Aspen and over Independence Pass at 12,095 ft, the 4th highest paved road in Colorado.  The photos below show the path to the top.

 

While my bike chilled in the snow at the top of the pass, I had a Bobo bar.

The long descent into Twin Lakes was much appreciated and thoroughly enjoyed.

    Your bike looks like it was born for snow.
