 Dillon: 9000 ft high, surrounded by snowy fourteeners. One hour drive from Denver.Went sailing on Joe's boat. Takes an hour to sail from Dillon marina to Frisco's, where they have added nice anchor additions to their marina. Ate in Frisco at the newly built eating place next to the lake. Bad, bad food, only drink a beer. Took 10 mile round bike trip along the shores of the lake Dillon-Frisco- Dillon. Mellow and easy. In spring/summer is cool. Love biking in the high country.

 After work we relaxed doing Waterton Canyon. Take Rte 121 off I 470E. Pass Lockheed and park left on route. Entrance across the street. Wide dirt road, mellow, easy, even for chidren. On left is Sth Platte River. Didn't measure distance but follow 5 miles until the Dam at right where there are picnic tables. Higher up route becomes steeper and after a 3/4 mile it becomes narrow, with switchback and more strenuous mountain biking. It joints the Colorado trail.We did a little of that but turned back. Easy access, for neighboring Denverites or friends visiting them. Not on week-ends please

 Mountain biking Moab's slickrock: Great mountain biking for all levels of riders including first timers. Riding on slickrock is like nothing else. The traction is amazing (when dry) and enables you to climb and descend ridiculous grades. The scenery is also top shelf and Arches and Canyonlands National Parks are great post-ride endeavours.

 This is a very pretty, easy bike route that starts in the town of Morrison and goes through light hills to the east. At the top of the steepest hill (very doable) you can see the city of Denver below, Red Rocks amphitheater and the mountains to the west.
