My wife's been wanting to get out for a ride as well. Considering a two up site seeing pace I we may join you. Only she has a chrome VTwin.
Its not how fast you go, its how little you slow down.
It's labor day weekend, you know how jammed it's going to be?
Come do Chicane, less RVs...

Mt. Evans is a fun ride. I'm a maybe.
Ghost has a good a point (labor day) all though I think Sunday is your best bet. Lots of traffic going out of town on Friday/Saturday and then coming back on Monday.
Im probably down as well, a friend of mine has been talking about riding to Evans for awhile, and I might go 2-up as well. All depends on whether my bike is back from the shop by then. If not, I may just go pick it up anyway lol!
my actual work, my pharmaceutical sales income goes to my 401k lol

Squaw Pass has a bunch of gravel at the bottom for 3 or so miles. Then the new pavement hits and its fine until you get to Echo Lake. There is also construction going on up top near the glacier lake that has the road torn up and loose in spots. Just be careful by the lake. On a dual sport it is a blast!!
First rule of the internet: *bleep* you and everything you stand for. Second rule of the internet: FKZOR U AND RRYTHING U STND FR!
Mine's been in (again) since the 18th of August...whee...maybe I'll have it back in time for the first snowfall...

It's still in the shop? Holy shit dude. Did they find out what the problem was?
thanks for all the heads up guys devaclis yea I'm definitely aware of the road damage near the lake it's fucking rough!!! And it's good to know that the bottom of squaw is still a piece of shit!
as far as labor day Sunday will be the best day to go the Church goers will be doing there thing and as Clovis said people will be out of town!
As I stated in the OP I will be 2 up so anyone else who wants to ride at a 2 up pace this is the best ride to do it and all bikes are welcome!
I think by process of elimination they'll eventually find/fix it.
That or I'll have a new bike one piece at a time...

Have you asked them if they will rent a bike out to you? when i got my fusion there was an issue with the traction control so i called the dealer and they said go ahead and bring it in. I said so your getting me a rental car in replacement until my fusion is fixed right? he said if hats what you would like then yes!
No one rents bikes, shop insurance wouldn't cover it and 303 quit like last year or year before.
Some places might still rent a Harley but I'd rather ride a lawnmower....

Even if you did ride a lawnmower you still wouldn't show up to my ride
Lol, someday...maybe.Even if you did ride a lawnmower you still wouldn't show up to my ride
This weekend isn't even one of your 4am KSU ones...
If you come to Chicane I'll at least be there to spectate and pit monkey. We could race lawnmowers around the pits...

Have fun and take a sweater!!!! Also...you don't have to pay the 3 bucks...it's a public/state owned road or something like that....

MT Evans road to get to the top of the mountain is not free there is a fee $3 for motorcycles and whatever for cars.Have fun and take a sweater!!!! Also...you don't have to pay the 3 bucks...it's a public/state owned road or something like that
$7 to fill up your tank $3 to go up Mt Evans I see no problem here!
Its free if you don't stop and $3 (for motorcycles) if you do.
John K and I went up there a few weeks back and the ranger in the booth explained it as "you need to keep your wheels rolling or you'll get a ticket" -- I'll admit though we did stop for a super quick photo at the summit.
hahahahah, shoot, figures, the week they change my schedule to having Thursday's, Friday's, Saturday's Off. figures... Ill try though see what happensI have never been up that way and have been wanting to go for sure.

Spent a year and 13000 miles on an 08 Softtail Nighttrain. Did Sturgis, seen the naked chicks, did the bar hops, even a couple of burn out contest. Got to agree Ghost. I tried it, had a good time but Id rather ride next to you in a lawnmower, a really fast lawn mower though!!
HD, under developed and over priced!

I had to ride an HD once, briefly, and that was more than enough. If you want a cruiser, the Japanese ones are much nicer.
