Bike-Talk Rally?

I found a long time ago that bicycle stuff is great for motorcycling, small and light weight.
JB we have laundry matts around here, even Buena Vista has one.
Alex Twin Lakes may be to high for them boys, they might freeze to death.
Gunnison area might be a good spot, or Montrose,
Saw on the news last night Trail Ridge road won't be open for another couple of weeks.

Go to Walley World and buy what you need once yer there

900 miles is a very, very long day on a Sporty and HR's Suzuki, stopping for gas every 100 miles, and a lot of camping gear strapped on makes it worse. Remember, those aren't comfortable touring machines. Ship it!

As for freezing: they're from Minnesota--way colder there, and 50 at nite is comfortable right? Maybe a cabin would be better for some.

Heard the snow is so deep on Trail Ridge, maybe end of June before open. Cottonwood Pass opens end of June. State put all their big equipment to work on Independence Pass to open this week, but only one lane so far, and avalanches took out a big hunk of the road. Folks in Aspen are unhappy.... with their money, they could buy a whole new highway, huh?

you can take a brake at my ponderosa we can finish the tour after a few denumbing brews...lol

campers, trailers, long miles, planning, GPS, "gotta get there", ETC, I say set a date, set a time, set a place, get the beer, let me know, IF i can spare the time I will get on and ride, I will camp or find a motel, I will plan my stops according to how my asss feels... one mile at a time, I will stay as long as I please and if there is naked around COOL if not I will encourage it but hell I'll have another beer, JMO

That is right....50* is nothing for us Northerners.... And yes it is comfortable, at any time of the year... During the summer it can break 100* with about 75% humidity as well. Yes 900 miles is a long haul, but I would do it, not sure I would be able to do it as freely as IronHorse though as I do have calculate my stops a little closer.. I would have to stop about every 150 miles to stay off of my reserve......

I think that it would be them people from Texas that might cry at 50*.... Can I say Cardboard??.....:roflmao:

Hey IronHorse, I wish that I could be that free..... But other things in life for me now have to intrude....

You bring the BEER!!! :rant:

Who says you have to do 900 miles in one day? I was only bragging that I did it once and that was a long time ago when I was in my 20s - I will never do it again, my friends! I like Ironhorse's attitude.

Hope your health improves with Summer coming on FLHT. Sorry to hear that brother. I slipped while rock climbing yesterday and fell about 15' onto more rocks. Just black and blue, so going to see doc in half an hour.

Yes, there is a KOA campgroung here along with about 50 other campgrounds within a 20 mile radius. All campgrounds have bathrooms, some have shower facilities, some have cabins to rent, even quite a few B&B's to choose from. There should be every kind of accomodations to suit you guys, unless you want a 4 star hotel.

Man Marc you got to stop this bad health stuff, you're getting too close to retirement and fun to be putting up with that crap. Look after yourself.

that's a long time to be out, I was having almost fainting spells last year and went to the ER 3 times and the doc several times before they figured out my heart was stopping, now I have a pacemaker. Life is good and I can still ride 650 miles a day. So what I'm saying is hang in there and they'll get you fixed up and you'll be better than new.
