    A few years back the wife and I drove up Mt Evans, highest paved road in the country. 14,100 ft. We used to drive up it annually when me and some buddies went out to watch the NHRA mile high nationals near Denver. When the wife and I went there were bicycles all up and down the mountain. Adding just a little more hazard to an already “hairy and nerve wracking drive” but totally worth it when you get to the top.
    I actually gained quite a bit of respect for the cycling enthusiasts that can pull that off. One guy had us take his picture while holding his bike in front of the sign.

    To get to the top of MT. EVANS you need a reservation now. We were winging the whole trip

    Yeah, I could imagine. When I went with the wife I couldn’t believe how busy it was compared to the previous trips. And that’s probably been ten-ish years
