    Cool Looking for Local riders

    My curiosity has gotten the best of me today... I live in Arvada... Travel 287 North through Broomfield, Lafayette, Louisville... Til I reach Erie... For work everyday... I'm always passing riders! wondering if anyone on here might be passing me here and there? I go out for random rides around my town... after work... Anyone else do the same? Anyone able to meet up sometimes after their work and want to just ride a bit? Boulder isn't far... and its beautiful... Or ride up just past Erie..... Plenty of choices... I can't wait for Friday.. I'm off and might be up for a ride if anyone else here wants to... I'm still a newbie, taught myself to ride, then took a course... I'm deaf, so it'll be an intresting experience. I'm filled with questions but I'll stick with these! lol...

    There are a bunch of us in the area. I work in Broomfield. We do after work rides occasionally.

    I live in Arvada and ride up and down Wads to work in Interlocken. Depending on where in Arvada you start out we've probably passed. I start out around 72nd.

    Re: Looking for Local riders

    Mentioning the Red honda rider... He was heading north on wads passing stanley lake... Had the jacket and gloves... NO HELMET! Had a white hat secured under the strap on the back seat... Hmmm All I could do was shake my head... So anyhoo... Anyone got any suggestive routes for friday? I've gone from peak to peak, Don't know my way around too well... I've gone from pikes all the way to central city then down to red rocks, and on through the springs til I hit Ralston. So... Kinda lookin for some people to cruise with this friday/saturday... Suggestions are the least... still helps!

    Re: Looking for Local riders

    We live in Morrison (mine CBR600 white, his FZ6 blue) pretty close to the MoCo meetup location (C470 at Morrison exit). We're out a lot, weekdays or weekends above our place, golden, p to p etc. Afternoon rides are tough as it's usually just about to start the usual thunderstorm, but we'd be up for it in nice weather...I'm a wimp that way. This week we're away on business, but hit us up next week and we'll go. My next door neighbor was deaf growing up but I don't remember many signs. Who knows, maybe it will come back to me!

    I usually hit the road around 7:00 in the mornings. I'm on the bike in my sig wearing a red, white, blue, and black Shoei and a red, black, and white textile jacket.

    Re: Looking for Local riders

    I wear a black/light blue jacket... Pink/black/white dragon helmet... Might've passed a few times, I always pass a "hi" to any riders on the road... I'm always out on the roads, never know exactly when... work hours always vary!...

    I live near wads and 100th as well. I ride down south on wads to work. I usually have classes on mon-wed nights but other than that, my work schedule is pretty flexible so post up or pm if you wanna ride.
