Here are the top stories in Lakewood today:

1. Cycling Without Age helps Colorado senior citizens get on the trails. CWA provided seniors with access to a three-wheeled e-bike that allows two passengers in the front, and the group's volunteer cyclists, help elderly people and others who struggle with mobility experience the freedom of a bike ride. (PBS)
2. CDOT is hopping mad about I-70 flooding. Colorado Department of Transportation is not pleased that its fancy billion-dollar tunnel filled with water. They're planning to fine their partner, Kiewit Meridiam Partners, "tens of thousands of dollars" after motorists were stranded because the automatic pumps didn't turn on like they were supposed to. (Denverite)
3. Judge blocks Colorado gun bans. The judge overseeing the Rocky Mountain Gun Owners lawsuit against Boulder County's recent gun control rules, which includes a ban on assault weapons, has approved a temporary restraining order against the measure. (CPR)
4. Starbuck's pumpkin menu returns. If you haven't already noticed, the national coffee chain's famed pumpkin spice menu has returned, meaning that fall is right around the corner. (9News)
