The rattle of a chain, the city skyline rising like a series of postcards — you push off from Park Avenue and Champa, tires finding rhythm on pavement. The guide sets the pace: easy cadence through plazas, a steady roll along Cherry Creek Trail, a quick stop to read a mural as the downtown heat rolls off brick and glass.
