What are you doing this Friday at 6:30am? Sleeping? Well, if the word rest isn't part of your vocabulary, catch the early Y route to Lyons. After heading northwest on Highway 36, wake those tired eyes with a tasty cup of joe at the Stone Cup Coffee Shop. While you're reeling from that caffeine buzz, head over to Meadows or Bohn Park, both of which are good entrance points for tubing down the St. Vrain River. Check out the Lyons outdoor games in late May. Bike, kayak, fish or just have a good time. What's awesome about Lyons is its mountain bike trails, which are plentiful. Off hand, the Hall Ranch trail comes to mind.
Unfortunately, RTD hasn't increased the amount of service despite many personal requests, so you'll have to make your adventure to Lyons a day trip or a short afternoon. One Y bus departs Boulder very early, while three afternoon trips head north to Lyons. Check the updated RTD schedules for exact times. You'll have to experience a Lyons adventure on a weekday, because no Y service is offered on weekends.
