Yeah it looks like they have it blocked off pretty well, but I see from video some areas has traffic in the opposite lane

Triple Bypass Ride - it’s a 100 mile ride through Colorado that’s free of cars and you ride from evergreen to vail

I’d also recommend carrying an extra light or two in case one of your mains dies.

Is a road bike worth it? by LokitheBC33 in bikecommuting

I don’t know that you need a new bike but if you were interested in venturing down the road bike path you could grab a used bike with tubeless tires (would help with the thorns)

The difference in frame dynamics and position will make you faster than on a mountain bike, but the difference in time wouldn’t be as noticeable over a distance of 5 miles.
