Idaho Springs to Georgetown
Summary
A brief reprieve from the work of climbing and the excitement of blasting down a mountain pass! Enjoy the scenery at a steady, comfortable pace. If you're riding with a group, this is the first of two stretches you can form an effective paceline. Even if feeling recovered from the last descent, don't overtax the legs here; the most demanding work of the course is next.
