I was riding my bicycle down the South St. Vrain Canyon on Colorado State Highway 7 this morning. Four bighorn sheep came down the canyon wall onto the road right in front of me. They then turned and headed down hill on the highway for about a quarter mile. I road with them on my bicycle for this distance and clocked them on my cycling computer at 40 MPH. I had no idea these animals could run that fast.
