• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

High Altitude Member Patch

I did the Mt. Evans last year after the owner's event in Durango. Pike's Peak was out due to the annual race that weekend. So, I got the 14er patch.

The mile high club patch is much more desirable and a lot more fun!

MY wife and I are deep into plans already into a trip that will let us be riding for three week in Co. Coming from Virginia. Our passed 4 years has taken us as far as San Diego and than heading to north to MT. and Black hills area. we have passed thru CO each and every time going east west or west east or south north. But we wanted to say in CO this tip and three weeks are planned.
I had many these PASSES listed as to our travel plans but this time I tried listing just the named passes and the trip makes a good map in its own. We plan to leave May 14 2022, on our two spyders 2012 RTL 2019 F3L pulling trailer. Or I might drop the 2012 for my Moto Guzzi California, not as wind protected but a joy to ride. Any how hope to see plenty of other riders

Just to add for the visitors. Pikes Peak & Trail Ridge Rd would likely be CLOSED until Memorial Day weekend. (Same with Independence Pass)

If you're going from Denver to Durango you can definitely get in your six 10,000+ footers and then some.


Loveland, Vail, Tennessee, Monarch, Slumgullion, Spring Creek, and Wolf Creek. (7)
or
Loveland, Hoosier or Freemont, Monarch, Slumgullion, Spring Creek and Wolf Creek (6)

OR here's another six pack in one day:
Loveland, Hoosier, Monarch, Red Mtn, Molas & Coal Bank. (6)
 
Just a FYI. This post originated in 2012. There have been updates in 13, 14, and 15.

I still recognize a few names or current people.

A good way to get high though. Ride our favorite bike in high places. Sorta like John Denver's Rocky Mountain High song. :yes:
 
May at 10,000 in CO can go either way weather wise, actually any month but July, Aug pretty dependable. Saw Vail Pass close for half a day around July 4th due to snow one year. Last year I detoured south of Wolf Creek pass in late June due to snow forecast above 8,000 ft. Snow in summer is usually brief though. All the passes are beautiful and worth it. Pikes Peak and Mt. Evans require passes beforehand now.
