    Ah ha! I see. Well, I'll keep my fingers crossed for you. I keep walking by the window at work that looks West......sigh......

    Welp, at least I had fun on Sunday...and my quads are still reminding me of it.

    Just in case anyone was thinking Squaw pass...

    I rode it Sunday and there is a lot of sand in the hairpin corners. There was also a few areas where both lanes were ice. I went from Bergan to Idaho Springs, and the shadows from the trees pretty much cover the other lanes most of the way.

    Um....what's the best road for riding during the winter where the sun is in the southern hemisphere?

    Duh...do I need to say it?

    Even if ya gotta go up and down all day long, it's still the most fun road out there.

    Oh don't even tell me.. I am so jealousy. Man it was nice riding into work this morning. Too bad I have a meeting at lunch or I'd run up Lookout Mountain.

    Thanks Rhino... but I don't even think about Squaw Pass unless it's mid summer (usually)... I know how that road gets with ice, snow run off, sand, shade and their lovely potholes...

    Hmmmm .... Did someone say 7 ?? .. heh... not sure I want to have lunch with Officer Robinson today ....

    I wonder how Deer Creek and Turkey Creek are right now sand wise? Anyone?!

    Maybe hit that up then blast down 285 back to the office.

    Re: Riding Today - 11/18 Tuesday ?

    I'm going riding. Don't know how far or long but I'm getting the bikes out one way or the other. Each November day like today is a gift that shouldn't be squandered.

    Hey, it's going to be nice-ish tomorrow, too. An IMI track day would be fun...

    Ride first. Eating can wait. We have all winter to eat.

    Ride, ride, ride, ride.

    Dear Sully,
    I'll think of you while I'm sitting in class, enjoying the room with no windows.


    Best Wishes,
    Sean
