Colorado in September

It's no secret that I love riding through the Rocky Mountains. But let's not forget about another activity we can all enjoy in Colorado: hiking. So, recently I packed my saddlebags with some hiking gear and took advantage of a beautiful September day, combining two of my favorite activities.

It is fall in the Rockies and mother nature is painting a colorful picture.

Riding around, enjoying the fresh air and the scenery... then a stop to tackle one of my favorite spots: Lilly Mountain, the first hike I ever did in Colorado.

In the background, Long's Peak towers above all others in the Rocky mountain National Park.

Not a bad way to start a Sunday!!!
