November 22, 2024 A very "strange" ride!

We again, needed to head up to Angletech to set up a service appointment to get the disc brake/drum brake swap done. Well out of habit, I got us over to the T-Gap trail south to the Pikes Peak Greenway and west on the Sinton Trail. Oops, I forgot about the Eliston St/I-25 bridge demolition going on till Nov 25th!! So, we had to detour over the Garden of the Gods Road on Sinton Road. Garden of the Gods Road and I-25 is a real mess of traffic, we had to do a stop and go several times to get from Sinton Rd and head west on GoG Road! Finally got to Chestnut St and crossed over to the other side of the road that has a double wide sidewalk/path heading up to GoG Rd. and Centennial Blvd. Crossed back over to get into Angletech. Appointment set for Dec 4th, 10 AM. 

We headed back to King Soopers Food Store to see if we could afford to purchase a "turkey" for the "Take a Turkey to Work" program but alas, couldn't afford one so we gave them a $10 donation for Care and Share so they could add someone else's donation and buy a turkey for the area needy! LOL, well of course we ran into more Road Work construction on the way there so we stopped at Starbuck's for iced tea and our brown bag lunch! 

Then back tracked to the food store, it was a bit crazy but we finally found a way out to Fillmore St and picked up the South Centennial Extension Bike/Walking Path

 back over to the Pikes Peak Greenway. Picked up the Rock Island Connector & Trail over to the Templeton Gap Road bike lane, heading north over to Nancy Lewis Park for our afternoon snack and then continued on the bike lane to a access path and west on the T-Gap Trail back to the storage unit! It was a strange ride, lot's of not normal "twist and turns" but it was also a nice day to get in a ride! Here's a Relive Video of the ride!

Till next time, Happy Trails and Happy Thanksgiving Season too!! :)
