Hey crew!
My friend and I are wanting to do a through-hike from Denver to Durango beginning in early August, but are limited on our time. As a result, we were thinking we could cut a few days by biking a portion of the trail. We were thinking about starting the trip biking, but are somewhat turned off by the Bailey bypass of segments 4 & 5.
Does anyone have any recommendations for which segments of the trail would be best to bike (for example: hike segments 1-6, bike 7-18, hike 19-finish)? We are completely open to suggestions. Thanks!
