    Late notice ride, more for beginners

    Hey everyone, I have a few people going out with me tomorrow morning for a ride. First thing in the morning will be practice on turns in a safe location(Not in the mountains). Police will not hassle us either (as long as no one acts like an A$$).

    After all the beginners feel a little more comfy, we will have a route/lunch planned from there. Anyone who is uncomfortable with leaning (remember....this is for beginners) over is invited. Plenty of time to ask questions, get critiqued, etc.....

    I am meeting several people at Starbucks on Colfax and Wadsworth. If your heading south on Wadsworth, right when you get to colfax, it is on the right side before you cross the intersection..... Leaving at 10am from Starbucks.

    For the beginners, trust me on this, it's safe, and YOU WILL learn something.

    Any questions, PM me or call:
    303-557-8013

    I just signed up tonight so saw the post too late. I used to ride a 1998 Triumph Daytona 955i years ago. I just got my Triumph Daytona 675 and still feel a bit rusty. Would love to go riding and gain some confidence back. I never really rode hard and would love to pick up some skills as well.

    Awesome time everyone! It was great to meet some new faces and have some great food. Really was a great crowd to ride with! Next time it's eat, nap, and then an hour later ride again.

    And thanks to everyone for their critiquing. Without a doubt I feel like a better rider. I've always felt safe and responsible, but yesterday was definitely a step up for me and made a whole new experience thru the canyons. Almost made the bike feel new to me.

    Thanks Jay for putting this together.
