Bicycle Tour of Colorado - 2009 PDF Print E-mail
During the third week in June 2009 I traveled with my friend Keith to Glenwood Springs, Colorado to ride the 2009 Bicycle Tour of Colorado.  These are a few of the things I saw both on the ride and on the way home.  Most of the "in town" shots were taken in Crested Butte on our day off. I wanted to get these up quickly, so I haven't added any narration or music yet. I hope to get to that later. In the meantime if you want to see some of what I enjoyed. If you see the controls on the bottom, just click on the arrow and enjoy. I have the pictures set for a three second rotation. Or, if the automatic function doesn't work, just click on thephoto and the next one will come up.

But, as luck would have it, I was catching up on the Arizona Daily Star’s “Opinion” page and came across an op-ed by Roberto Rodriguez called “Journalists Serve the Disempowered.”
