Get ready for an epic all-paved ride that kicks off at Union Jack Moto and winds through some of the most scenic spots in Colorado! This all-day adventure—or even a two-day trip if you want to soak in all the sights—takes you from towering red rock formations to quaint historic towns, thrilling mountain roads, and iconic landmarks. Start by cruising past the stunning Garden of the Gods, where you'll glide by the Main Garden and Balanced Rock before heading into the heart of Old Colorado City. Take a break for breakfast at one of the cozy cafés and enjoy some shopping in the charming historic district. From there, continue into Manitou Springs, where you can stroll the shops, hike up to Rainbow Falls, or check out the natural mineral springs. Next, ride up the scenic Ute Pass towards Woodland Park, with sweeping mountain views to keep you company. After Woodland Park, head to Divide and take a southern detour into Cripple Creek, a historic mining town that offers thrilling twisty roads. Once there, explore the gold mines, ride a train through the mountains, or try your luck at one of the casinos. It’s the perfect spot for lunch and a bit of exploration! From Cripple Creek, journey to the quirky antique town of Guffey, passing by Guffey Gorge (also known as Paradise Cove) along the way. Take a breather or a quick dip if you’re feeling adventurous! Continuing south, you’ll head toward the Royal Gorge Park and its famous bridge, where the views will take your breath away. Afterward, ride through Skyline Drive in Canon City for some jaw-dropping views and stop by a local park to unwind by the Arkansas River or visit the Royal Gorge train depot. As the day winds down, take the northerly route back to downtown Colorado Springs for a well-earned dinner at one of the many dining spots. This ride clocks in at about 5 hours of saddle time, but with all the attractions and scenic stops, it can easily fill an entire day—or even two! Start early, pack your sunscreen, hydrate, and get ready for an unforgettable adventure. Whether you're a laid-back cruiser or looking for a bit more thrill, this ride offers something for everyone, no matter your experience level.
