Mineral Belt Trail – Colorado

Summer vacation in Colorado 2013. The first trail we rode was the Mineral Belt Trail in Leadville which is one of our favorite rides. It’s a paved 12 mile loop around the city, with climbing, coasting, curves, beautiful scenery and lots of mining history which is well documented along the trail. All at an altitude of 10,000+ feet. As is our tradition, we followed up the ride with a visit to the Golden Burro for lunch. As a bonus to our stop in Leadville the town was having its Boom Days festival.
