In Alaska he will ride 700 miles from Anchorage to Fairbanks, and through Denali Park. His trip to Europe will include a tour from Vienna, to his home in Bavaria. In the past he has toured throughout Germany, Austria, Belgium, and the rest of Western Europe, but this trip is a family visit. As far as Colorado is concerned, Bogner, like most people here, just loves being in nature. He rides the Red Canyon Road often, and this week he road to Grand Junction, spent the night, and returned the following morning.
Some people have a parking problem at the pool.
Joe Bogner has never raced, and never been sponsored. He fondly talks about meeting common people on his tours, people he wouldn't otherwise have a chance to know. I'll probably do a bike tour every summer if I can. If you start getting lazy, you get into trouble. Follow this link back to the Our Neighborhood features.
