    Weekend Leaf Ride

    Devaclis isn't old enough to post this up in the FOG section so .............

    We took off to Buena Vista on Friday afternoon. 125 miles Friday. 340 miles Saturday. 140 miles Sunday.

    Route map for Saturday:



    Château Larry



    We really were roughin' it




    Independence Pass on Saturday was a zoo (but not as bad as Kenosha on Sunday)




    Devaclis on top of the world

The laws of necessity, of self- preservation, of saving our country when in danger, are of higher obligation. To lose our country by a scrupulous adherence to written law would be to lose the law itself, with life, liberty, property, and all those who are enjoying them with us; thus absurdly sacrificing the end to the means."

    Nice! Glad you had a great time guys. We did some of the same route. We did 550N. to 50E, and turned North again at Poncha Sprgs.

    That's not a bad days ride, you guys got
    in most of the great roads in central Co.
    That damn Independance road gets bumpier
    every day I swear! At least they are starting
    to repave the west side a bit.Glad you had
    a great time.
