The Milk Run was probably in the same spot on Chileno Valley...you go over a small rise, just before the schoolhouse at the end of the road. We had a group ride (10 people) and there were 7 or 8 cows. We ended up herding the cows along the road for about 1/4 mile, dodging fresh cow patties the whole way [laugh]

Not quite - that's a spot where you can see pretty far ahead. I was going in the 'reverse' direction around a blind corner. Fortunately I was riding with the big head that day...

QuoteA woman escaped serious injury and refused medical treatment after a cow knocked her down and walked on her legs. Boulder Open Space and Mountain Parks ranger Pete Taylor said the woman was riding her bicycle along the South Boulder Creek Trail on Monday when she encountered the cow and stopped to let the animal cross.

Instead, the cow knocked the woman over and stepped on her legs.

Taylor said the woman wasn't seriously hurt. Her name was not released.

The cow had left the area by the time rangers arrived, but other people warned fellow bikers and hikers on the trail about the animal.

Boulder Mountain Bike Alliance vice president Jason Vogel called the incident "odd, rare and random."
