Biking and Hiking in COS

COS = the trendy way of saying Colorado Springs. I guess its the airport code too.

Anywho, we had a fun time here by spending Thursday riding mountain bikes all day and then Friday hiking! Ideal.



After returning our bikes to the rental place, we did some laundry since it was right next door! They had an old school Ms Pac-Man arcade game in the corner and games were only 25 cents! Tryfs and I played dual games for awhile and then we just sat around reading.
It was a proper old school laundromat with very old vending machines. Then later for dinner we went to a gas station BBQ place that had a really cool outdoor seating area with country music pumping out of the speakers. Classy!
On our hike the next day, we went a couple of places and managed to mostly avoid the scary looking thunderstorms that were chasing us. First we went up to a cool little peak (St Peter's Dome) that was really scrambley to get up to, and then we went back down and drove over to Cheyanne Canyon to hike up to Muscoco Mountain. 



On Friday night we had dinner in the hotel sports bar. It was kind of weird but still good. Actually all 3 of us were really pooped after these 2 really active days and we ended up binge watching The Office (US version). There is a whole channel devoted to it! Fun.
