So yeah, I am maybe a bit crazy BUT I am on spring break starting next week thursday(20th) till the 29th and I am going to take the Uly out to Colorado.

Any first hand rider reports of conditions along the way? (may be a bit premature to ask that question).

Also if anyone wants to tag along for the trip or any part of it let me know. I always welcome riders.

Make sure you stop and see Frank!!!

Hell, use the BRAN and ask BadWebbers along the way for a couch to crash on! Save you a ton of money and get to meet tons of people!!!

may be a bit premature to ask that question Yes it is. This week will be cold and windy however we have had a very mild winter this year. I rode to work every day for the last two weeks but this week I am in the truck (for reasons other than weather)

Drop me an email at f_skinner@yahoo.com. Maybe we can scare up a couple of Buell riders while you are in Colorado. BTW: What part of Colorado do you have in mind?

Frank, I will be staying in the springs (if my worthless friends ever get back to me that is). I see you live in fountain....I used to date a girl there when I was at Carson.

I will definitely hit you up when i am out there and would love to hit up some of the canyon roads. I know I have to spend a day or so in Lake George/11 mile.

Any idea how rampart range road is right now? I would love to take the Uly up there but Im sure its still snow covered with massive washouts this time of the year.

Rampart Range road is still closed and will be for a while. It was pretty nasty last time I was up there.

Maximum, Jammer, Troyz and other Uly riders probably have the best idea of where the non-paved rides are. You posted this in the Old School section so you might want to try the Uly section because I think they check that area (being Uly riders an all).

I do have a couple of ggod roads to ride but since you have been in this area you probably know all the ones I do. Make sure you take a copy of the BRAN just in case.

BTW: It was snowing about an hour ago but it does not look like it will stay around.

Keep in touch, my phone number is on the BRAN.

Frank,

Yeah I was a big dummy and posted it here unintentionally and I did post it in the Uly side now.

I am hoping to do a loop from like Canyon city to BV at some point. We will see.

I will be in touch once I get into the area for sure.

I've been into the low hills a couple of times.
I live just east of Boulder, been thru Allenspark and Estes.
A little sand and gravel, quite a bit of white, mag-chloride residue.
Be very easy when the Mg-Cl is wet - slick as ice.
