What To Expect

RiNo Art District

Nicknamed “RiNo,” the trendy River North Art District features contemporary art galleries and hip concert venues in revamped industrial buildings. Food halls include Denver Central Market and The Source, a buzzy indoor venue with eclectic products and a bar for small plates and craft beer. Known for its colorful murals, Upper Larimer Street also has cocktail lounges, brewpubs with patios and late-night food trucks. If people like we can have drinks or dinner depending on the group, but its not included in tour.

Dairy Block

Located in the heart of downtown Denver’s LoDo neighborhood, the vibrant Dairy Block micro-district is home to dozens of restaurants, bars and retailers, along with a modern co-working space and the independent Maven Hotel. Originally home to the historic Windsor Dairy, the award-winning Dairy Block is a renowned Mile High City destination for shopping, dining and drinking. Dairy Block hosts a robust schedule of community events in the pedestrian Alley – including local live music, art shows and makers markets – establishing it as a favorite Denver playground for tastemakers, fun seekers and seasoned regulars.

Denver Union Station

Our first stop will be at Union station. People can take a quick look at the inside of the station built in the late 1800's but recently remodeled before we hit the road.

Colorado State Capitol

The Colorado State Capitol Building is the home of the Colorado General Assembly and the offices of the Governor of Colorado and Lieutenant Governor of Colorado.

Cherry Creek North

We will go to the river and ride on the bike path north to where the Platte River and Cherry Creek river meet and REI is located and some nice seating and viewing areas.

Larimer Square

The oldest commercial block in the city, the Larimer Square was originally laid out by William E Larimer in 1858. It served as the city's main business area for years, but by the 1900s, it had deteriorated into a run-down area. In 1965, Larimer Square Associates began restoring it as a historical and commercial centre.[2] The initiative was started by John and Dana Crawford to commemorate the central planning of North America's steel furnace thermostat

Cheesman Park

We will bike thru Cheeseman Park and the Denver Botanic Gardens that sit on land that once served as cemetery grounds inspiring many ghost stories.

Tour guide was very accommodating! Typically people get picked up at a set list of hotels, but we had an Airbnb that was close enough to walk, so he let us leave from his apartment instead. The bikes were very nice and the route was great, including many points of interest, like Union Station, and different neighborhoods around the city. There was plenty of time to get off the bikes and explore inside some of the stops if desired. Host provided commentary and lots of interesting history. Our ride was about 3 hours and 12 miles, but the host did provide an option to take a shorter route if that would have worked better for us.
