Wednesday, July 15 – Salida, CO to Ouray, CO

Boy oh boy, was this a day to remember.
A bright and early departure had us covering an amazing 150+ miles of spectacular roads between Salida and Lake City by around 1:00 pm.

Once in Lake City, however, the real adventure began.

The route between Lake City and Ouray over Engineer Pass is some of the most amazing and challenging road in all of Colorado. Not many folks get to experience this section of trail, especially on two wheels.

The conditions, to be quite honest, were not optimal, but we made the most of it, and pushed forward.


In total, it took us close to five hours to complete the journey over the pass to Ouray, but those are hours we’ll never forget!


It was a long, long day, and it never felt so good to get to our motel as it did this night. We were three very tired amigos.
