Up on Cripple Creek

We headed out of C. Springs, up Ute Pass (Hwy. 24 W.) to Divide to pick up CO. 72 S. heading to Cripple Creek. This is a very scenic route with lot's of 30 mph. twisty's that comes into a mountain valley, where we picked up Teller Co. Rd. 81 into Goldfield and Victor, CO. This road is almost void of traffic and is constant sweeper, filled with mountain views and aspens just starting to turn colors for fall!  If your heading to Cripple Creek, take the road into Victor first and then go to Cripple Creek from there.

One of the few Paved pullover's on Hwy. 67 to Cripple Creek

Lot's of these 30 mph curves on both CO. 72 and Teller Co. Rd. 81, FUN! :)
We headed out of Victor to Cripple Creek on more twisty roads and since they were having a big custom car shop downtown we took a back street and headed out of town on Teller Co. Rd. 1 and a stop at the Cripple Creek General Store for a snack and water. Continued on Teller Co. Rd. 1 to Evergreen and picked up Teller Co. Rd. 11 heading west. This is a very open road full of sweepers and some twisty stuff to keep you awake! ;)  the road finally ends a CO. Hwy. 9, we headed south to pick up CO. Hwy. 50 E. into Canon City for a stop a dairy queen for a dip cone. LOL, it's easy to see why we don't call ourselves BIKERS isn't it! ;) Afte that it was head for home back in the Springs, 160 miles of mostly twisty roads, can't beat that! Soon the fall colors will be glowing on these roads!
