Morning light slices across Lake Estes as you clip into a pedal-assist bike and listen to a guide outline the route. The air smells of pine and cold water; the town of Estes Park recedes and the continental divide begins to rise in earnest. Over two hours you move through lakeside lanes, fir-lined shoulders, and short climbs that reveal sweeping views of Rocky Mountain peaks.
