[US][OC] Vail Pass Recreation Path Descent

This 5-mile section is the "dessert" part of the Copper Triangle ride in Colorado. I recorded this video last weekend to use for a project - but here's the raw 4K footage to share a little more joy in the world. Happy trails, friends!

Copper Triangle 2026 Highlights

Here are a few of my favorite parts from the ride yesterday - including a bit from the last 5 miles of downhill coasting on the Vail Pass Recreation Path. During my first year of long-covid I was largely house-bound and dreamt of seeing that trail again! I've now done the ride twice pre-covid and twice post-covid.

Thanks to The Ride Collective organizers - and all the friendly riders and volunteers - who made this such a great event.

The music is from of a collection of tracks I'm working on that celebrate the joy - and restorative power - of cycling. It's the "moving meditation" that re-centers me.
