9/18 Sunday Ride - Alice/St. Mary's Area

[Dr. Joe Siphek]

Looks like there will be a few of us heading up to ride some of the trails around St. Mary's Glacier/Alice. The cabin is located in the town of Alice about 1 hour from Denver.

Plan on meeting at my cabin around 8:30-9am...time subject to change.

Who's in so far...
Dr. Joe
Sean
Aracheon
Ricky
Aracacat
60pan (maybe)
Mike Kuledge (maybe)
Wade + 1 Maybe


There are 100's of miles of trails around the area, spidering all over, we can reach Rollinsville, Apex, Central City, Needles Eye and even Empire (never done it though)...all trails are less than a mile from the cabin. Range from fairly easy to very tough (baby head boulders & steep). We will be starting at 10,000ft and climbing from there so dress accordingly.

I'll be driving my truck up that morning and can fit one more if needed, I also have a trailer that could hold 4 or 5 bikes maybe even 6 if someone wants to drive everyone up. Just let me know.

Hit me up through PM's or call/text me to verify you can make it/get directions or travel in a caravan.

[Ricky]

Tempting...

[Dr. Joe Siphek]

Tempting.. mebbeh pending how I feel after taking pics at PPIR all day Sat. Don't wait if I don't show up on time.

[Ricky]

We were going to try to go camping this weekend, but if we don't decide to go, then I am definitely up for this!

[Dr. Joe Siphek]

Looks like my little bro may be joining us as well.

[Sean]

Bodhizafa's exact words in his last email were, "rip the DRZ up!" So really, I have no choice but to ride the shit out of his bike. Really, it's a moral obligation.

[Dr. Joe Siphek]

there will definately be some rippin & tearin!

[Sean]

If anybody is curious, here's how the day will pan out.

Here is Sean, Dr. Joe Siphek and his brother:


Here is Aracheon:


Should be fun.

[Dr. Joe Siphek]

bwahahaha.... that made me laugh out loud. thx sean, i needed that.

Plans have changed. From now on, there's no messing around.

[Dr. Joe Siphek]

KSU by 9am.

[Sean]

Fine, we'll do 9:00am.

But just so you know, my post was much more dramatic and inspiring than yours...

[swademaster]

I would like to make this, but unsure if I will be able to yet. If I can, I would probably be bringing Blake along too, so we would be sticking to the easier trails.

[Dr. Joe Siphek]

i just can't compete w/ Vizzini, when it comes to inspiration and drama, it's like getting involved in a land war in asia.

[Sean]

If I can, I would probably be bringing Blake along too, so I can watch my kid kick the crap our of you loud mouths, with his 50cc.

Translated your post, so that the truth is revealed.

I'm tempted. I was thinking of going on a solo 3-day ride this Fri-Sun, but there's a bunch of other life bullshit that I need to take care of. If I did that, I'd def be ready to ride by Sunday. I'd need to borrow some trailer space tho.

[Dr. Joe Siphek]

hit me up arcatacat by COB friday if you want to go. Pretty sure we can fit both bikes in my pick up.

That could happen.

Cool. I'll let you know. Thanks.

[Dr. Joe Siphek]

looks like we are gonna have a nice little group! beware...there may be some snow up there?

[Dr. Joe Siphek]

here's a quick route itinerary i'm thinking.

from the cabin we'll ride to fall river res and up to chinn's lake, maybe check out lake lochlomond, then back and up and over james peak, then down kingston trail and from there we can head over to needle's eye/jenny lake, or we can head towards central city and get lost on all those trails. I'll let you guys decide when we get to that point.

all in all we should put in about 30-40 miles, maybe more.

[Sean]

Sounds good to me, I don't know any of the trails. You're leading Travis!

I figured I'd throw a can of gas in the back of the truck just in case.
