Wish Chip were going..........

So he could look at my crooked azz luggage rack for 5000 miles!
 :)

I hope I don't get distracted by it and go off a cliff!  Between that and the channels being reversed on the 660's MP3 player, I could have some serious equilibrium issues this trip. :P

First night in Colorado we were planning on staying in or near Central City, next night in Estes Park.  How's the roads from Central City to Estes Park?  

We'll check out Mary's!

Thanks for the info!
 :2vrolijk_21:

The roads are great, it's called Peak to Peak hwy, nice ride. Not like Million Dollar Hwy, or Trail Ridge, but a nice ride. Depending on the time of day there's a good BBQ and brewery in Nederland, Wild Mountain Smokehouse and Brewery.  :2vrolijk_21:

If you have time while in Estes get directions for Devils Gulch rd (CO rd 43) to Glennhaven and Drake, not a long ride but great and really twisty. One of my favorite local rides! Taken Nige & Jan, Steve and Bill & Anne over this route.

Thanks for the tips, Craig.  Looks like we're gonna book a couple nights at Mary's and ride around the area for a day or two!  The Peak to Peak Highway is on the agenda, for sure. :2vrolijk_21:

I woulda said I'd hook the ol' 2720 back up and you could have the 660 back once I meet up with ya, but I have the thing crammed with MP3s ... and just tonight removed my old H-D MP3 player. :oops:  I gotta have my tunes! :guitarist: :singer: :drummer:

After visiting Estes Park, continue into the Rocky Mountain National Park  (10 or 15 Bucks)  highest continuous road in north america.  Great ride,  alot of wildlife,  speed limit 20 MPH for the whole road.

brings you out at Grand Lake.   Then work your way to US 50 and take the Black Canyon Ride.   Wonderful. 

While in Utah,  I-70 to 15 is a great ride.  Did not have any traffic over Memorial weekend.....


Have fun

Judy and I are in Nashville.  Great day to ride, no rain and not too hot!  Thanks to some folks on the site the 665 was fixed and worked great.  Planning on spending a little time tonight at Wildhorse Saloon!  Tomorrow morning we will leave for St. Charles MO to meet Brian.

The Wildhorse is a great place Tommy.  If you're looking for a great steak, try the Stockyard, I assume it's still there.
