    Riding near Steamboat

    Hows the riding near Steamboat? Any recommendations?

    I am thinking of a long weekend there this summer - coming in from Utah.

    Rabbit Ear Pass is fun. Two lanes up, one down... like Berthod Pass.

    Go out through Hayden and back through Oak Creek. Waaaay cool roads.

    From Steamboat:

    Go East on Us 40 to 131

    South on 131 through Oak Creek and Yampa to HWY 134

    Take that East back to 40, then back to Steamboat, or on to Kremmilng or wherever


    134 is the jewel here. Absolute blast of a road, low traffic, good twisties, lots o' fun!
    Do not put off living the life you dream of. Next year may never come. If we are always waiting for something to change...
    Retirement, the kids to leave home, the weather or the economy, that's not living. That's waiting!
    Waiting will only leaves us with unrealized dreams and empty wishes.

    +1 on the 131 to 134 loop. Just be aware the 134 is open range, so keep an eye out for large 4 legged critters in the road.

    Here's a pic of our last trip through that area

    I'm sure the stoner mountain cops troll the CSC for potential targets. OK! "Wheres the bong cooter? That pesky sportbike should be comin over rabbit ears any time now."

    I ALWAYS post where I'm gonna ride --- then I go the other way.
