CO 67 S is the portion of 67 that runs from Divide, CO through Cripple Creek and into Victor, CO. This route starts off pretty tame but then gets into some reasonable sweepers and a couple lower speed turns (no hairpin switchbacks) with some nice overlooks to stop at for pictures. While the route itself is good, folks usually will appreciate checking out the old mining towns of Cripple Creek and Victor, with the old buildings and places to grab a nice lunch.

CO 67 S is a road that can be ridden by just about any rider on any street capable motorcycle. There are some shelf drop offs but nowhere near as extreme as some other roads in CO, and they all have guardrails for added confidence.
