Bummer. It looks like it turned out to be a beautiful day. Hope u guys had a great ride. We did get a lot done. New trailer set up for 3 bikes. More work done on the RV. Next is a new fuel pump in the RV, a performance one. Still have lots to do by next weekend. Will try and get out later today if it doesn't rain. |

That looks like our last Sunday in Woodland Park. Hey Jody, if u can ride home in the snow, what's a little hail Well the rv is back together with a performance carb and fuel pump. Hopefully it will run like a champ. We'll be heading thru Canon City next Sat and stopping for a few nights in Gunnison. Can't wait. |

We had a good group that met for breakfast this morning at the Red Rocks grill. Some did a ride before and then after. I talked to Dave about putting a link up here on his Alaska trip. He said great! Hi all, Follow the link to see our photos. If you would like to shut the music off, just press the speaker feature. You can also put the slide show into a gallery mode too. They may go fast, so use that feature to stop and look longer if you like. We hope you enjoy them. We really enjoyed this trip. Be Well, Denise and Dave http://www.slide.com/r/2DS_526xyD9AbynV3UWGIlupXxV -8Wyv?previous_view=mscd_embedded_ur l&view=original |

Mike and I did part of the ride that I did last Tuesday today, but extended the loop. We did the ride over Berthod pass, to Granby to kremmling. Instead of heading south to Dillon, we headed west over Gore Pass to Taponas. That 27 miles is made for Buells. Fantastic ride up and over the pass. I never did Gore on a MC and always wanted to. At Taponas we headed south to state bridge and then to I70 and then east. We of course had to do Loveland Pass on the way. We did just over 300 miles. Mike had his new video camera mounted on the bike and took me doing the curves up all three passes. Cant wait to see it. |

Yeah, get that on the web, would love to see that! We're just about ready to get packed and loaded and head to the hills for our one week riding vacation. I am soooo looking forward to this. Dan's been a work horse getting everything ready. Buells have oil changes, tires balanced on the RV, etc. etc. etc. He needs a vacation just to stop working on getting ready. |

Have fun Julie. I had an invigorating ride up the Big Horn Sheep Canyon this evening. Not so many cars as you find during the weekend. Lovely. Air conditioning works great above 70mph. |

I'm trying to talk Dan into letting Skye and I take the bikes out of the trailer in Salida to ride up Monarch Pass. He just looks at me funny . I'll keep working on him. I love that pass!!!! And they have great chocolate fudge at the store at the top. |

Here is the link to download a 40mg file of me being recorded by Mike on our ride up Gore pass last Wednesday. Mike edited it and added music so it would not be too big. https://rcpt.yousendit.com/712820464/6a58d093aa97d 9378f3b60113b22f083 |

Mike posted the video to youtube so you do not have to download it. I was over doubling the speed limit but it does not show that way on the video. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mbaqIYw4r6Q |

Did Grand Mesa from Delta. Took 330 to Vega Reservoir and saw some bears. A momma and baby, then came back the same way. Absolutely gorgeous. I'm going to visit with my ex-sister in law on Wednesday in grand junction. Will go back up Grand Mesa, Dan and Skye will drop me off, then they will head down to Getaway. Then we'll head to Ridgeway Wed night and play in the Telluride area. Hope to post some pics and video when we get home |

Julie, Just to let you know, The camera that Mike has on his bike is a Oregon Scientific ATC 2K. He took a lot of video with it and most of it looks really good. We will use it tomorrow at Trail Ridge Road. John |
