    Plan on doing Tail of the Dragon before the owners event. May not do any organized group rides. We might just hang around and socialize or take some short trips with a few others. In other words, we're going to "wing it"

    Although I opted not to go on a group ride, I don't think you could go wrong with any of the selections. Whoever thought up these rides sure did a good job. Each has something to offer to a discriminating rider. My hats off to the person that suggested these.

    then look in the mirror when you take your hat off... The falls Ryde "with a twist" was included due to your input? Thanks...


    The twist... We may start this one with the ladies heading one way and guys heading the other, and see where our paths cross??? Still deciding if that will be feasible.

    the snake is a little further north... And didn't really fit in the timeframe needed.

    The Dragon is not that bad when you are in the front seat and not trying to exceed the speed of light.

    You may want to consider the Smoky Mtn Natl Park Ryde... Might see Elk there too!

    I don't do group rides if I can help it, but I probably will be taking some of these on my own. Thanks for pulling this fine list together.

    We will ride over the mountain to Gatlinburg on Thursday or Friday on our own. We will ride the Dragon on our way home on Saturday.

    I liked how you did the ride last year to Mesa Verde - rode as a group to the park entrance then went at your own pace through the park and back to Durango. Will you be doing this again for any of these rides?

    Thanks.... And yes. All the rydes will have a "split point" where Ryders can decide to hang with the group or do their own thing.
