Adventure Tips
Bring a hydration pack
Even moderate rides along Boulder Creek can leave you thirsty, so carry water to stay properly hydrated.
Plan for mixed terrain
Tours mix paved paths with gravel sections; durable tires and moderate technical skills help ensure comfort.
Use sunscreen year-round
Colorado’s high elevation means strong UV exposure, so apply and reapply sunscreen even on cloudy days.
Allow time for brewery stops
If booking a Brews Cruise, budget for relaxed breaks between rides and a safe ride home afterward.
