As far as i know there's nothing cool to do in Colorado Springs.
Estes Park and surrounding areas rock out though.
Great waterfall hike in RMNP (sorry can't remember the name but it'll be easy to find if you poke/ask around) that starts in some meadows before heading through a real beautiful aspen grove and finally leading you to a fairly sweet waterfall (no cliff jumping)
Long lake is cool, good fly fishing on the way up.
Driver to Ft. Collins and the tube the poudre (1.5 hr drive to the Poudre).

if youre into longboarding and its not too crowded hit up garden of the gods. its a pretty gnar ride but its dope if you can do it. its also just a nice place to visit and hike around. other than that i think people jsut rip up and down on street bikes and shit in the city.

I dont know if you are much of a runner but the incline is in manitou springs, a suburb of colorado springs, and is a mile and a half or so of old rail ties straight up the side of a mountain. Thats fun just to see but if you arent so much a runner the Barr Trail which is literally right next to the incline is a really cool trail to hike and if you hike the whole thing (12.6 miles) you get to the top of Pikes Peak.
