Bikepacking the Colorado Trail and Fly-Fishing Salida!

In three days we rode our Diamondback Haanjo gravel bikes on a big loop starting and finishing in Salida Colorado on pavement, gravel, and singletrack. We rode sections of the Continental Divide Trail and Colorado Trail, through a ghost town, and finished by floating the Arkansas River back into Salida while fishing.

We rode Diamondback Haanjo EXP's on this trip, check them out here.

I don't get the letters on the mountains. I saw it in Salt Lake City all the way through Colorado to New Mexico. It cracked me up.

Did you guys really do this last month? I’m trying to understand the snow situation on the CO trail currently. 3 of us are starting from Waterton 4th of July weekend to see how far we get on bikepacking setups. Beautiful video !! Any info you have would be helpful.

BTW, If I remember correct, wasn’t the 2nd Flow Magazine cover, you grinding a rail? It’s been a while sir, good to see you still doing great things on bikes !!
