Day 54 Breckenridge to Hot Sulphur Springs

We are now going to be heading north through the Rockies crossing the Continental Divide many times. Today's ride started with a delightful descent to Frisco on a dedicated cycle path. We then followed the Blue and Colorado rivers before finishing the day cycli.g the Byers canyon up to Hot Sulphur Springs. We arrived to find our campsite by the Colorado river completely under water so we've ended up camping in the front garden of a local bed and breakfast. We also have mosquitos, great big things.
The scenery today was amazing, probably the best day so far, and it's good to be a couple of thousand feet lower.

  3. I love the west coast too, great scenery and you genuinely get a feeling of the 'wild west'. Watch out for the bears too, especially yogi bear, cos he'll eat all your favourite puddings.
