I’m of the live and let live mind. I don’t care what you do so long as, you don’t hurt me or anyone else. If you want to smoke pot, go for it. If you want to gamble, go for it. I voted in favor of these two things when they came up on the ballot. In hindsight, I would have not voted for either one. Colorado and Washington were the first two states to legalize weed. It attracted an element of society that was less than desirable. If I would have known the casinos were going to be 34 floors tall in the middle of this little mountain town, I would not have voted for it. My cousin lives in Blackhawk and I know the tax revenues are appreciated in Gilpin County. I don’t know how he feels about it. For the government It’s always about the money… always. Colorado enjoys the tax revenues on both weed and gambling. I don’t see it myself.

Join me as I ride Glenwood Canyon to the Hanging Lake trail head. The trail itself is 1.5 miles out on steep and rocky terrain, with a 1,000 foot elevation gain. I had to push myself to make it up there and back. This was a real challenge for me, but I made it! πŸ₯³ The trail itself is so beautiful and the lake is always picture perfect.

This video is the first video in a series of my ride from the Western state border with Utah to the Eastern state border with Kansas.

On the first day, I rode from Crested Butte South 200 miles to the border, then rode 187 miles from the the border to New Castle, Colorado.

Join me on the ride!
