What is there to do in Boulder and Colorado Springs, CO?
I am traveling out to the Boudler area this summer for cycling. For when I'm not riding I was wondering what to do? I hear that there is a lot to do for fun. Does anyone have any details on things that I shouldn't miss?

go to the university and visit the library. find some students around campus that may be able to offer suggestions. visit a nearby pizza place and get a beer and talk to others. do not forget to visit winter park about 60 miles up into the mountains. fun in winter for skiers but also great to hike or camp or enjoy the air. Biking on leval trails in frazer by winter park is EZ fun.
Answer 4 :
There is a town called Estes Park about 35 minutes north of Boulder on 36. It is a beautiful town, and the gateway to Rocky Mountain National Park. If you happen to be there on the 4th of July they have a spectacular fireworks display over Lake Estes. If you are religious, there is a cathedral called St. Mahlos I believe, in between Estes Park and Raymond, Co on 7 that is very historic. The scenery itself is almost enough to keep you busy. If you enjoy topless women, there is a bar called the BusStop in Boulder that was pretty cool. There is a strip of stores and restraunts in downtown Boulder that had a great piano bar, a wonderful Russian eatery and a number of other things. Take the tour of the Coors brewery.
Answer 5 :
Trail Ridge Road, Estes Park, CO is the best workout! Start at about 7,500 feet and ride all the way up to 12,090 feet. About 22 miles of climbing non-stop with little oxygen! If you are up for a challenge, this is the ride to do, coming down the pass is the best part :)
