Tour of the Rockies this Spring
« on: January 28, 2009, 02:28:49 PM »
If any one is looking to take a day or a few days up here in Colorado let me know.  I am thinking about setting up a few 500 miles days to hit most of the good roads in CO.

Hey Mark

A couple of buddies and I keep discussing wanting to make a trip to Colorado...we've even looked into shipping the bikes to Denver and then riding home. It's just too far to get there and home in even a 10 day trip, without doing super-slabs. :annoy:

It will happen for us, but not in 2009. Thanks for the offer, as having a guide would be great! Maybe 2010... :thanks:

Thats cool, I am think of merging with VFRdisscusion (google VFRD) their CEO is a friend of mine and he has a 3 day ride planned this spring.  I am going and was just asking if any other bandits wanted to play.  These guys are good riders (some anyway) and the VFR is a good handling slow Bandit.  Anyway, I will be glade to pass any information along to any interested riders.

Cheers,
