    Canyon Blast this Saturday 8/15?

    Should we do a Canyon Blast this Saturday, 8/15? It's been a while since the last one and I'm feelin' the itch. We have done a couple up here on the Northern Front Range and they are great. We meet at the Loaf-N-Jug on HWY 6 in Golden at 8:00 am and go from there. There are 11 canyons between Clear Creek and the Poudre. Last time we got in 6 of 'em I think. Who's up for it????? At any point, you'll be close enough to Denver to bail and head for home if you get tired. Post up here by copying the list below and inserting your handle, so we can tell if anyone want's to go. We do ride spiritedly, so if enough people show up we'll split up the groups and have maps. More to come...

    Awesome idea. I just don't think I'll be able to do a ride this weekend, but we'll see.

    I may tag along. Should have my bike back together tonight. I like to do my 'canyon blasting' during the week when there are less distractions though. Not sure if I've rode with any of you in the past...

    This is also posted up on CFRSR. We did one of these last year with CSC, and also did a organized Steamboat ride this year with CSC, too. Most of us have had lots of track time and respectful riding on the street is expected (ride your own ride, no passing on the inside, full gear is a must, and no crashing...check your ego at the door). We're out to rip some canyons and arrive home safely.

    A few mainly CSCer's have been on rides with us and they've loved it. Ride with us...you'll have fun.

    I would like to meet up. I'm deciding on whether to go to VA Saturday or Sunday. If I go Sunday, I'll be in for sure.

    "Us" is a few folks that hang on CFRSR, as in http://www.cfrsr.org. We've been around since about 2000 or so (someone may correct me here)...another sportbike board that's quite a bit smaller than CSC. We all ride together and know each other pretty well. We do about 3 or 4 organized rides (happen every year) a year and meet up at the track often (after CDR and SCR closed we've been going to IMI). The last few rides I've organized have been posted here, too, and we've seen anywhere from 7 to 15 folks show up. We used to be bigger (25+ peeps on rides) but a few of us have moved on to other things. The folks on CFRSR are all good riders and we're together for the love of our sport (little posting on our board and lots of riding).

    We only start at 8 am because we'd like to actually finish this one some day. To do the whole thing without bailing will prolly take about 12 hours! The best we've ever done on this one is about 2/3 before we bailed.

    Sweet. Sounds cool. I'll most definitely be tagging along. Are we wearing helmets for this ride? JK.

    This sounds like my kind of ride. I have to get someone to cover my Saturday morning shift before I can say I'm in.
