Yep... one of my most favorite local rydes!!!! Less than an hour west of Denver and you can't get any closer to the sky in the US (on a byke)!!!
I love it when you can see nothing but road and sky!!!!

I could not peg the exact location, but I was thinking Colorado areas like Pikes Peak.

I understand the road up Pikes Peak is paved all the way to the parking area at the top.

Pike's Peak IS now paved all the way up, but Mt. Evans still holds the record for highest paved road in North America
(pending review of the highest point of each parking lot) :dontknow:

cstall got this one right... it is Mt. Evans, just off of I-70 at Idaho Springs. I took the picture myself...
