Bike – Ride from Frisco marina to Breckinridge and return - Hare

We will meet at the Summit County Middle School, not the Frisco Marina. The parking at the Marina is now $2.50/half hour whereas the Middle School is free and the parking lot is along the trail. Take the first Frisco exit off I 70 going west from Denver and follow N Summit Blvd (Hwy 9) to School Rd. School Rd is one stoplight before the road that goes into the Frisco Marina. Take a left at the stoplight and follow School Rd to the Summit Middle School. There is plenty of parking space at the school. We'll meet at the lot on the right side of School Rd that seems to be used by bikers and kayakers. It is about a 5 minute ride along the trail to the Frisco Marina from where we park.

We'll meet at 9:00 AM and be ready to ride by 9:30 AM. There is construction on I 70 in various places so it might take longer than normal to get there depending on traffic. I drove there July 11 and it took 15 to 20 minutes longer than normal so please allow some extra time.

The ride is along paved bike trail. There are some hills so be prepared to do some climbing, about 800 ft on the way up to Breckenridge and about 200 ft coming back. The trail is in good shape but some sections, particularly near Breckenridge, can get a little busy. The wildflowers were in full bloom when I did this ride on July 11 so let's hope they stick around awhile.

There will be an optional lunch after the ride at Nuevo Vallarta, which is a short drive back along N Summit Blvd from the Middle School. The restaurant has a parking lot so parking should not be a problem.
