I Ride HWY 119 & Get Pissed About Pollution

I took a gorgeous ride on "Diagonal" HWY 119 from Boulder Colorado out through Nederland and Blackhawk, then down HWY 6 into Golden.

What a cool ride! From very little online research I found out that 119 was established in the 1920's and finally paved in the 1960's. Packed with tons of killer scenery from rivers to lakes and snow-capped peaks, HWY 119 is definitely one of my favorite Colorado day-rides!
