+==== Ground Transportation ====
+There are [[http://www.flydenver.com/gt/index.asp|several options]] to get to Boulder from the airport:
+  * [[http://www.rtd-denver.com/|RTD Bus service]], [[http://www.rtd-denver.com/skyRide_SubHome.shtml|Skyride]] [[http://www3.rtd-denver.com/schedules/getSchedule.action?runboardId=123&routeId=AB&routeType=9&direction=W-Bound&serviceType=3|AB Bus]] is $13 each way.
