Looks like a bunch of great rides all over today. Like many here, we endeavored to enjoy the last bit of summer with a 450+ mile jaunt of northern CO. I hope there is more summer left, but if not, today might tide me over through spring (nah, probably not).
Great group to ride with; No crashes, no tickets, no drama, and some sexy bikes! Highlights include hwy 7, Poudre Canyon, Rabbit Ears pass, Gore pass and finally Berthoud pass. Pics and route for your viewing pleasure.

Sounds like a perfect day! Thanks for the pics. I had things to do at home all day, so I like to see the fun everyone else got to have.

I have to concur. This was not only a great ride, but also a great group with which to ride. I too hope we can get a few more weekend rides in before the snow flies. Well, then I move from motorcycle to snowboard. Can't wait for that too.

Good job Joe and Sal in leading the ride.

Anyone who wants to ride, let me know.
