There will be more when the weather warms up. Jim Wallace is down there. A few of my favorite rides are 50 West of Canon and a bishops run.

sweet! yea there are some pretty sweet rides down here. im pretty new to riding and havent done much but just like 115 to springs and back down to bishops. and down through 50 to salida. thats all i really know. if there are some sweet rides up in springs and shit i would come up there too. it just sucks cause i cant find riders down here who wanna ride outta town. and anyone who hasnt done bishops ride is really missin out!

A nice ride along with Bishop's is the way out of Bishop's to Colorado City. I loved that path but it sure gets boring once you get to Colorado City and then head to Pueblo. It's worth doing a couple times but you'll be hating life once on the freeway, it's just straight and endless.Originally Posted by antoniofosho636
Only nice thing about coming back from Colorado City to Pueblo was the group I was with was doing about 100mph+ and made great time. There's no one out there and you can just sing along. Flat and straight and can see forever. Once in Pueblo you've got to stop and rest though. Then I25 back North to the Springs is super boring.
It's a nice loop though but it's give and take. Excellent riding from Penrose to Bishop's and Colorado City. Then you pay for it on the way home...

We head that way quite a bit. There are some good rides up here just look for when someone posts something. You got this guy

well me and my girlfriend screw around out at her househa but seriously we screw around on a little 100 and a 50 out at her house. she lives out buy the royal gorge. they used to have a pretty sweet place to ride dirt here at the bottom of skyline but the city closed that shit off. pretty lame if you ask me...
anyways i dont know if that really counts Brat. so i pretty much just ride street.

Use my site or forum to help you find good roads, I find I have my forum set up better with the pictures and a few videos (more to come).

67 to Deckers is always a blast (watch out for the decreasing radius).
126 from Deckers to 285 is nice
US24 can be nice but has cops
67 to Cripple Creek is nice
81 Loop to Victor back to Cripple Creek is nice too
There are tons of nice roads if you look for them. One of my favorites is West out of Cripple Creek on 1 to 11 west to 9 (just watch for the cattle guard signs).
Yeah... thankfully she looks like she weighs all of 70 pounds soaking wetof course dude. I just did a ride on 4-7-09 and brought the girl im dating with me.
l^^^ lol I know lucky me. Easy on the wrists and bike.
Oh, hit me up...I'll meet up with you and ride. I'm available to ride anytime I'm in town, which is 99.9% of the time.
i sent you a message. dont know if it worked... anyways we will definitly have to hit up some twistys this summer! anyone else you can get to come out would be sweet. fo sho

Got the Message...not having to work I obviously ride a lot. Something like 18K miles last year. And to think when I was in MI I was sick of riding all the flat roads, and only kept the bike because I owned it out right. I think the wife was using hers more then to commute to work on (3 miles each way) then I was.
been doing some dirt bike stuff in canon. i plan on riding the tl down there more this week.
