From the days of the old 10 speeds, through the mountain bike craze to the gravel bike fad, Timberline has always been exploring the back roads of Colorado. In an attempt to avoid the pavement, we are now offering a hub tour around the quintessential western town of Steamboat Springs, Colorado, for our Gravel Rides Cycling Tour. We avoid any high-stress traffic riding on the main roads for the freedom and safety of unpaved exploration. The Routt National Forest offers alpine lakes, jagged mountain peaks, and popular mountain passes right outside the town limits of Steamboat. And allows us to enjoy the amenities of a true frontier town in the evenings. Go for that brass belt buckle, or your very own Stetson hat from F.M. Light and Sons. Enjoy the ski town vibe with a cocktail on the patio, or watch the stunning sunset across the Yampa Valley from a quiet park bench. And this is all after cranking through the backroads of the Zirkle Wilderness.
Since our rides do not travel through communities like a road bike tour, picnic lunches are included.
