OK.. planning time, routes are being worked on. But mark your calendars.
Sunday August 10th
I think there'll be two rides again, one starting north, one south, meeting up 1/2 way in between. I'll try not to repeat the same route as much as possible.
NoCo start time and place:
Start: meet-up at 8:30 - pre-ride at 8:45, kick-stands up at 9:00
Place: Lyons Diamond Shamrock
4206 UTE HIGHWAY
South start time and place:
Time: 8:30 a.m. - pre-ride at 8:45, kick-stands up at 9:00
Place: Morrison Conoco
C470 & Morrison Rd.
For the folks in Boulder/Thornton, there is a third start point (and earlier start time). See this thread:

Leads/sweeps (thx Cathy)
- Devaclis = lead (maybe)
- Sweetie Pie = lead or sweep (maybe)
- REPSOLSASH = sweep
- 200sr20 = sweep
- MetaLord 9 = lead or sweep
- Matty = lead or sweep
The ~2hr "official" ride will meet up in Nederland around lunchtime, at which point folks can either go home their own ways, or grab lunch up there. There's a great Himalayan/indian buffet at the Kahtmandu, as well as local pizzas and burgers. Then if anyone wants to, they can join us for an extended ride either north or south later back to the start point.
Just to remind everybody, this isn't going to be a speed ride. We'll be riding "the pace" near the posted limit like last time.
Also like last time, Mcvaaahhh said it so well: "Anybody is welcome to join in on this ride, but I'm going to say this several times between now and then. THIS IS A SLOW-PACED RIDE. If you simply can't handle going at or below the speed limit this ride is NOT for you. There will not be slow/medium/fast groups on this ride. All groups will be at a slow pace. Remember the purpose of the ride.
Gear is required! At the minimum you need helmet, jacket and gloves. (shoes and pants would be a good idea, unless you like flashing it) If you show up with your helmet strapped to the tail of your bike I'm going to ask you to skip this ride. "
Get to the meeting points with plenty of time to gas up, hit the restroom etc. We won't hold up the group for the few stragglers not ready.
