Snuck away to Crested Butte and rode the 401 Trail yesterday. Driving up the Gothic Road, we parked just above the town of Gothic. From there we pedaled up the road to Schofield Pass where we jumped on the 401 Trail. After another mile of single track climbing we enjoyed a spectacular mostly downhill fall ride. Notable for its wild flowers in summer, this trail shined aspen gold fall colors yesterday. If you are a mountain biker, make sure this trail is on your list. It is a Colorado classic and one of my favorites.
