Hey Greg, I might be out and about...gotta lunch date with my son and one of my girls, but might be out around 1. Send a text and let me know where you're at if you get out there. If not, just remember, there's still gravel up in them thar hills...so be careful.

Oh, I was up there today (by car). Hwy34 has gravel in shady spots and it's thickest in that long passing lane half way up to Estes. Hwy7 up at the top by Estes where it's coldest is also littered here and there with gravel in the middle of the road. Other than that, the powdery mag chloride is disappearing on the smooth part of hwy7 as you begin to come down.

Other than that...I haven't been on any other roads recently.

REV'IT!

You can come down and meet a gaggle of us at Conoco on I-25 and 120th....or if we decide to take 34 we could meet you in loveland somewhere.

Wish I knew who could do that on a Sunday, or Monday...but I don't. Unless you live way down in the South area of Denver. I know someone down there. I need to get me some new shoes, too...gotta figure out how to get my bike to a shop during the week.

Wow...you think I woulda thunk about that. Thanks, Chad. I'll give ya a call later on and let you know. I've been going down to RMK, but to be honest, I'm not looking forward to paying their arm and a leg costs. I'm thinking about checking out MotoAdventure, but I'll have to wait until Tuesday to talk with them.

Hey Chad, get a hold of my buddy frank2. If you can bring the rim and tire, throw him a couple $$ and he said he'd do it. Go ahead and PM him, during the week he gets home after work at 3PM.

Hey Greg, it was great seeing you and the guys in Lyons. I almost wasn't gonna stop in Lyons, but I needed gas and like I said, I wasn't real sure about going up, but thanks for turning around. I enjoyed 7 all the more.

Here's what I was doing in Boulder...

Sorry I did ride with you Cathy. I got the tire done, then picked up Mike and went down to IMI to watch the action. Then got home watched wsbk with James. Buy then I was tired and it was getting colder........ I can go on all day with the excuses

I'll be out tomorrow. Done with class at 9 and have a breakfast date but after that I'm riding.

Cathy and Ben, great riding with you guys today. Glad we were able to meet up. Following your lines up 7 was a blast. Some of the most fun I've ever had on my bike. Had some pucker moments with the sand but that was half the fun. Cath, I can't even imagine what your pace is on 7 when you're railing.

Chad, if you're going to be up North tomorrow you best call or text.

Ummm...pace is all relative. :oops:

Stay off of the tight winding roads during the winter and spring and stick to roads that get a lot of sun and you will avoid the heavy gravel. :)

I'll be out somewhere...finally got all the slippery shit off the new tires. I'm guessing lower 7 wasn't too bad by the sounds of it?

I just walked back into the office from the construction trailers.. man is it ever warm out. Did anyone get a chance to ride today? If you did, I am jealousy. (as I walk past my SV in the parking lot... sigh)

OUTLAWD
Mon Mar 2nd, 2009, 04:22 PM
yeah...i took the day off to ride...hit up 34 to estes, then 36 and the lower part of 7. 34 was iffy in spots, but for the most part clean, and the wind up in estes was brutal in spots. Passed a few guys on 36 that I turned around and followed for a bit.

These new pilot powers are awesome, I can't wait til its really warm, and the roads are clear to really see what they can take.

I rode around Horsetooth for a bit. For some reason I just wasn't feeling it today. Got a few pics I might put in the running for the calendar but I don't know.

I was up 7 on Sunday afternoon and there were Big Horn Sheep in the road that had stopped traffic in both directions. Watch out for wildlife when the weather is unseasonably warm like this.
