How many Spyder Owners from Colorado are on here???

We sold our Rssssssssssssssssses for Rttttttttttttttttttts!!!

I really like the RTs.

We would like to get a Colorado Spyder Ride going or join one, if one is already scheduled. Clue me in, on what's going on in Colorado, please.

Lamont - how about a rematch on the Dragon in the Fall? That still had to be one of my best rides ever!!!!

Rocky Mountain High

If my memory serves, it's Trail Ridge Road. But my forgetter is working overtime these days

 

[GnA]

close... but there is one higher! :clap:

Trail Ridge Road is the highest continuous paved road that connects two towns.

This one ends at a parking lot at the top... and, if you have a good telescope, you can see the Pacific and Atlantic oceans! :dontknow:

 

[thehawk]

To quote Katherine Lee Bates ...

"Oh beautiful, for spacious skies ..." and the road can only be that which goes to the top of Pike's Peak.

The highest is Mt. Evans, the highest continuos is Trail Ridge. Yup, I am from CO, not originally (non native) but since 85.

I am just curious, has anyone ever had a clear day in both directions east and west to be able to see that far????

Willy takes the prize!!! Mt. Evans, the only 14er with a "paved" road all the way to the top. Pike's Peak is dirt....

Yes, I've been up there several times without a cloud in the sky!!!

Well, grew up in Fort Collins (PHS '70), have a Spyder, NOT in Colorado. Would be fun doing the river canyons (Poudre, Thompson, South Platte, Arkansas, Delores), Trail Ridge, North Park, Devil's Backbone. And I am SURE there are other route that I have forgotten.

Congrats ...

Willy). I may not know my mountains but I do know that on a clear day you can see forever)

I still own a home in Leadville, but living in AZ right now. I'm hoping to go up sometime this summer to escape the heat here. Gonna take the RT up through Santa Fe, NM; Espanola; Alamosa; Salida; Buena Vista; then Da'ville! Can't wait!

Live in Crested Bute but will be here in Calif. For another few weeks then will ride the Spyder back to CB.
