Squaw Pass, Saturday Sept 6th

[JimDog]

I know a lot of people are riding Sept 14th (http://goo.gl/A6eaB8) which I'd love to make but can't. Then there is the Durango trip that sounds awesome this weekend (http://goo.gl/LnFYcm) which I also can't make.

But I'd still like to get a ride in this weekend if anyone is up for it. Either day works. Don't care where (P2P, Deckers, etc).

Any takers?

[Update]
Looks like Squaw Pass, this Saturday Sept 6th. Meet at MOCO. KSU 9:00 a.m.

Hey Jim, I'm down to go. Have you tried the Squaw pass route before? if not we should do that. I'll get the map up later this afternoon so you know where it's at.

If you guys head out Saturday, I'll be down for that ride.

[JimDog]

I have not done Squaw pass. And either day works for me!

So Squaw pass this Saturday? Just want to nail something down so I can update the thread title

Thanks!

I personally have never found out how to change the thread title, good luck if you are able to do it!

Anyways I am completely down for riding this Saturday. Whatever route is fine by me. Deckers is good, Squaw Pass is good, anything really. If the KSU ia 9am or later I am all over it!

Ok, so Squaw Pass, Saturday Sept 6th, KSU @ 9:00am.

Now we just need a meeting location. Morrison Conoco? Not sure which way we ride to Squaw Pass since I've never been. So if there is a better meeting location speak up!

That's the best spot to meet for Squaw. I just did that ride last weekend. I might be able to lead if you need someone who knows the way.

Well I know I'm not leading LOL...I'm assuming that Nguyen would be. But the more leaders the better

I am a strong yes...

How long does this normally take? I might be down

Can do the whole trip in around 2 hours depending. If you start out by catching 70 to Idaho Springs, thats how I prefer to start.... lots of nice sweepers and the road surface is in great condition. Be careful on the back side into Evergreen... many sharp turns with pot holes and gravel... it can be dicey for sure. Enjoy!!!

Actually, now you have that backwards. From Evergreen Pkwy to Mt Evans turn off has been repaved. That section is now one of the best motorcycle roads in the country. The other side from Echo lake to Idaho Springs kind of sucks in comparison. I would recommend taking Bear Creek from Moco up to Evergreen, then taking my own little secret route on Upper Bear Creek to Witter Gulch to Stagecoach Blvd back to Evergreen Pkwy, and on up to Squaw Pass Rd (103). I don't even do the other side anymore, I just go up to Juniper pass overlook and turn around....the new asphalt is that good.

Looks good! I nominate Dave to lead as he has the newest bike on here Is Mt. Evans still open anyone know? Maybe we can hit that up before it closes for the summer.

Sounds awesome DriverDave.

Nguyen - Evans (upper road) closed on Labor day

[DriverDave]

Sully can vouch for the fun factor of that route

[Nguyen]

Aww man, always wanted to see the top of mt. evans, o well maybe next year.

That route looks great, Dave. Can't wait.

[JimDog]

I second the nomination for Dave to lead

[Drama2]

Heh dave I can sweep....ok bad inside joke.

[DriverDave]

Lol...no worries.

[rush4theyeho]

I think i'm in on this one.

[Matty]

Maybe

This guy has it right. I just rode it today. The Evergreen side is in awesome shape now. The Echo lake side in bumpy in comparison. I did Deer creek canyon to Conifer to Evergreen to Squaw Pass to Idaho Springs.
