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

[Dr. Joe Siphek]

yeah i have no idea how many miles the DRZ can do? i'm not gonna lie, we might get lost too! but we'll find our way!

[Sean]

80-ish miles/tank. Less if you're flogging the hell out of it.

maybe I'll bring my gps...just in case.

[Dr. Joe Siphek]

i'll have my gps as well, but it takes some of the ADVenture out of it!

[Ricky]

I usually always track the ride with my phone when I'm in the hills. That way I know where I came from, lol.

I'm definitely itchin to ride. Looks like a high of 65 degrees up there.

[swademaster]

Still unsure if we'll make it. I'll text you tomorrow evening, Travis, to let you know if we will or not.

[Dr. Joe Siphek]

aaaaww yeah! gonna be a good time.

[arcatacat]

I'm in for sure if I can still get some truck space. Looking forward to it.

[Dr. Joe Siphek]

arcatacat...hit me up, we can prolly fit it in my truck. I plan on leaving sunday morning between 7&7:30...i'm located by Dick's sporting goods park in commerce city.

I'm in Denver proper. I can meet you somewhere on the way... The dino park-n-ride at I70 and US40? Just let me know when to be there.

[Dr. Joe Siphek]

okay that works too...my truck is old and i typically don't take i-70 up, i usually go up 6 till i get to the stop light then jump on i-70. So if you want to meet at the parking lot just off Hwy 6 just past golden that might be a little easier, or you can meet at my house. Let me know.

[arcatacat]

I can just meet at your place. I'd be leaving at the same time either way.

[Dr. Joe Siphek]

sounds good...i pm'd you my address.

[Dr. Joe Siphek]

peace out fools...see you sunday. call me if anything changes or if you get lost.

[Aracheon]

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

Here is Aracheon:


Should be fun.

I hate you.

[Dr. Joe Siphek]

check your pm's 60

[swademaster]

Wish we could've joined in today. Long day yesterday made me not want to get up at 5 this morning to get everything ready. Hopefully there will be another ride yet this fall.

[arcatacat]

Just got home from a super fun time. Thanks to Travis for hosting us at the cabin and all the guys for making the ride a blast. I definitely want to go again before it gets snowed in.

PS: there were a couple cameras and 4 (FOUR!) GoPro video cameras documenting the day. I can't wait to see those vids.

[Sean]

Good riding, good times and good people. I had a blast! Thanks for putting this together Travis.

Here's a couple of pics:

[Dr. Joe Siphek]

Had a great time yesterday, the group size was perfect...i'd say we rode about 40-45 miles ish...my gps shut off a couple time so not exactly sure how many we put on. Excellent scenery, lots of technical riding and the WIND was insane at the top of james/kingston peak. Can't wait to see the video/pics! Thanks again Dustin, Sean, Chris, Ricky and Mike!!!

Hey Ricky,

What was the name of that iphone GPS track app you were using? I'm tempted to buy something like that.

[Dr. Joe Siphek]

you guys need to post up the vids soon.

[Ricky]

Hey Ricky,

Accuterra Unlimited. The reason I like it is because it has a MAP store inside the app. Everything is free, but you can download specific regions, or select the areas you want. Invaluable tool because it has topo maps.
