Doctor’s Park was a surprise classic; we heard it was good, but I think most of us found it to be our favorite ride is Crested Butte. As we were riding up to the high point of the ride, a storm moved in and pelted us with hail and rain. Luckily, by the time we got to the great downhill at the end of the ride, the trail had dried and the riding was wonderful.
