Riding North America's Highest Road: Mount Evans on a Motorcycle | Colorado Scenic Byways

[@crcondie]

Being from Colorado I have ridden up Mt. Evans many times on my bicycle .... Your comment on the road is spot on I won't do it again until they fix it. However, I have yet to ride it on the motorcycle and will do that this summer. Your advice to take lots of water and to start early to avoid thunderstorms is important to those that aren't used to altitude. Tommyknockers is a great spot in Idaho Springs. Have you been to Beau Jo's for their Mountain Pizza Pies? They have honey on the table for the crust and it's a nice combination of sweet and savory. Thanks for the great content.

[@ridetofood]

I haven't been to Beau Jo's, but it's on my list! I've been to West Bound a few times as well as the Vintage Moose.

I have 22 that have been filmed. I'm doing my best to edit them as fast as possible.

We have been there in 2021 August on the way home from Sturgis to South Florida. We have seen patches of snow. It is an unbelievable ride, quite challenging sometimes. My wife was sitting right behind me, and either she was screaming or praying. What a ride, what a view!!! Next day we rode the Million Dollar Hwy.

In my younger years I camped at Echo Lake, then up early and rode my mtn. bike to the summit. It snowed an inch or two during the night & I was the first one on the rode that day. Riding through fresh snow & through a herd of mtn. goats near the summit. A wonderful personal memory.

We rode our Wing up MT. Evans and Pikes Peak in 6/19. You're right about a couple of rough sections. Looked the same to me. Being from East TN with lots of mountains and narrow, curvy roads we really enjoyed the ride. Just have to watch for cars taking ALL the road! We saw some Mtn goats and a baby one, lots of Mtn sheep, and a ptarmigan. Also saw those marmots eating asphalt. Go figure. I guess if I lived at 14,000 feet elevation and cold as hell all year, I'd eat asphalt too. Enjoyed the ride with you guys!

Come to find out there were no hotels/motels available Labor Day weekend in a 50 mile radius of Idaho Springs.

Thanks for another great video! You seem to always go somewhere that I’ve been in the past (some would say I’m old) but it’s great cuz it brings back good memories. I’ve been up Mt. Evans 3 or 4 times. I always felt the switchbacks on Mt Evans we’re easier than those on Pikes Peak. They might be tighter but I don’t think they’re as steep. There’s a State Park in Arkansas called Mt. Nebo. The switchbacks up to the top of Mt. Nebo are flat out terrifying. I’ll never ride up there again! But I’m a flat lander from central IL, only two curves in my town and straight roads and corn everywhere else…

It’s the same condition as it was last year but since it’s alter in the season there shouldn’t be much snowmelt/runoff on the roadway! If you like pizza, beaujos is great in Idaho springs too! Bivuoac coffee in evergreen before you head up. There’s a reservation system still for mount evans and they release a few extra tickets the day before at 5pm (I think) if you’re planning at the last second. Definitely go earlier to avoid storms :)
