Our family took a springtime bike ride on the southern section of the South Boulder Creek Trail from the Bobolink Trailhead on Baseline Road south to just beyond the US 36 underpass (roughly 3 miles one way). It was a pleasant outing with gorgeous mountain views and rural countryside. We saw a few birds, a couple horses, and lots of cows (including calves). The trail surface was a mix of pavement and crushed stone; both well maintained. On a sunny Saturday afternoon, we saw lots of other bikers, joggers, dogwalkers, and families out enjoying the trail.
I have ridden this trail in its entirety hundreds of times in the last 20 years and appreciate some of the widening that has been done in some of high traffic areas. However, over the last year two bridges have been closed, and most recently another section has been closed east of Federal Blvd. One of the detours utilizes bike/pedestrian and is a minor inconvenience. The other two detours route you on side streets and then narrow sidewalks along busy 4 lane roads. If/when these issues are resolver it will go back to being one of my favorite routs, but until then I am avoiding it.
Wonderful trail with plenty of room and some great views to the west. Just walked it for the first time since the pass over the train tracks was finished and enjoyed the new addition. Would certainly recommend!
Everything is very good except because in some parts there are homeless people sitting or lying on the road where it is supposed to be for bicycle traffic!
Road from Fraser to Winter park. Parked next to local center. Crossed the street and headed south. It’s a couple of blocks of riding on crosswalk then you hit the trail. Trail is beautiful. It’s like riding in a forest with a river running through it. Very relaxing. Highly recommend. Some nice photo ops.
The people of Grand Junction are blessed with a great trail and park system. The Colorado River Trail is smooth and meanders like the river. The sights are beautiful as long as you keep your eyes to the west. But, no one mentions the segmented gaps in the trail. We were riding a section east of downtown and the trail ended abruptly. There was no guidance on how to connect with the trail again to continue east. I concluded that I would need to ride a little on the road but was not familiar enough to take a chance. Some signage would be nice.
We begin our ride on the State Highway 93 Trail on its northern end at Golden’s North Table Mountain Park (the park’s West Trailhead). The park is in a beautiful area with other (unpaved) trails to explore. We rode this trail for about 1 mile south to its connection with the Tucker Gulch Trail (near the intersection of Mesa Drive and Joseph Circle) and enjoyed both trails. Although the State Highway 93 Trail parallels the roadway, there’s a nice median in between with native grasses and wildflowers, as well as the occasional wall, so the experience felt safe and pleasant.
We begin the Tucker Gulch Trail on its northwestern end at a connection with the State Highway 93 Trail (near the intersection of Mesa Drive and Joseph Circle in Golden). From there, we headed southeast, through Norman D. Memorial Park, quiet neighborhoods, and scenic natural areas until reaching the Golden Freeway underpass. It was just over a mile of riding and a very pleasant experience.
We enjoyed the northern tip of the Signal Ditch Trail on an early September ride. It was a pleasant neighborhood setting beginning from Thornton's Fallbrook Park. The journey included views of large cottonwoods, bright sunflowers, and the Rocky Mountains in the distance.
We biked a section of the Grange Hall Creek Trail in Thornton from Margaret Carpenter Park through the south end of Grange Creek Park and into the Riverdale Open Space. It was a really pleasant ride through a beautiful natural setting and a prairie dog habitat.
The path is well paved and smooth. It’s right next to the road the entire time, so it’s too loud.
