Independence Pass

Colorado:
The name conjures images of high mountain passes, deep river canyons, and spectacular motorcycle riding. As well it should. Every tantalizing description of Colorado that you've heard is true. Come see for yourself!

The goal of this site is to guide you to Colorado's best motorcycle roads and help you find what you need when you get there, whether it's motels, campgrounds, great food, bike repair, rallies — you name it. Zoom in on the maps to see the details, or follow the links to the part of the state that interests you.

Passes and Canyons is participatory. If you know of a terrific stretch of road, a restaurant worth recommending, or anything else that belongs on the site, let us know about it. We also welcome stories of your rides and motorcycle trips.

We've got a good bit of this site built out now, but there's still more to add. If you don't see what you're looking for now, check back later. Or send us an email, , and we'll try to make it a priority. In the meantime, check out some of the best places you'll ever find for your next two-wheeled vacation.
