    Let's Unite Fri 4-8 to enjoy some early season riding.

    The point of this would be to bring riders out to meet, talk and ride some motorcycles. It's early in the season so getting some eyes on canyon conditions would be fun and a great chance to warm up a little for the season. This is a feeler to see if that kind of thing is even interesting to anyone. If so the meetup would look something like:
    Meet up location - 14th st and Taft in Loveland at the King Soopers Gas Station. There is a Starbucks come early and drink a cup.
    Meet up time - 9:00 kick stands up 9:30
    Route - TBT
    Time Frame 9:30 - 1:30
    Pace - Slow to Moderate -Ride Chill and use your head.

    Chime in if another day looks better to do this kind of thing or with any other thoughts.

    I'd be up for it, but my bike wont be back together in time. Still waiting on headlights.

    I rarely think of motorcycles without a little yearning. They are about moving, and humans, I think, yearn to move – it’s in our cells, in our desires. We quiet our babies with cyclic movement, and we quiet ourselves by going.

    Well Mr. Barn we might have to work our way closer to golden that day to accommodate you guys. Since nobody up north has chimed in. Arron when will your lights be in? BC and Barn, do you guys have any interest in Golden Gate maybe P2P. I have no idea what the road conditions look like there.

    =)

    Since I'm the odd man out, I don't wanna impact the ride route really, but thank for throwing out those alternatives. I'm sure as Friday draws nearer you'll have some Northies chime-in and join ya!

    For what it's worth though, I'm definitely down to head up your way though and do Poudre Canyon sometime this season! I haven't done it a long time so I'm overdue.

    I'll start looking at some possible dates this Spring/Summer and put a little planning to see who all I can rope into it. I know it's a long drive for us Denver folk to get there - to then do the ride, but that canyon is one of my top 5 in the whole state!

    Yeah Barn cool man, I'll keep my eyes open for those rides. When it warms up a bit, get up here early so you can take a nice break before you ride the canyon. Then drop down into Granby to Winter Park, over Berthoud pass. I would split off at 119 and do P2P home but I'm in for that ride a couple times this season!

    I probably won't be hitting the streets until May unfortunately. I'm having withdrawals.

    I prefer heading up north, if/when the opportunity arises. However, I'm good with whatever too. I do need to be done by about 2, so whichever ride/route is planned, that's my only 'requirement'.

    It's Going to be later before I can get out. I don't think this affects anyone but I thought I would mention it. 10:30 for me at the gas station.
