Lots of video of the TRS Colorado Trip. We spent about 5 days in the Dolores / Rico / Mancos area and then another bunch of days up on the Uncompahgre Plateau. Weather was drier then normal and a bit warmer. The fires didn’t impact us, but we did have some smoke roll through. Riding both the Adventure Bikes and little bikes. We like this set of areas better than Taylor Park, fewer people, lesser used trails, trails in general are not beat up. https://youtu.be/PajJpUk4xWM?si=vogdViT4-rGApnM-
