Bicycling Magazine just published a list of 10 great fall foliage rides, and two of them are local-ish.  I haven’t done either… yet!  But I also recommend Deer Creek Road.  It’s a climb, but very pretty.  Take the Platte River path South to Chatfield Reservoir, make your way to Deer Creek Road near the botanic gardens, head West until you don’t want to climb anymore, turn around and say “Wheee!”, the downhill is fantastic.
