Thanks, I've been fortunate to have done a lot of traveling in my life so as I get older I enjoy "staycations" more and more. Our state has it's problems no doubt but it's damn scenic especially taking the "back roads" on two wheels.

Sounds like a pretty good couple days to me!!! I may have to try that route to Breckenridge out.
Bully for you, getting out to enjoy the weather and the sights! That's a sweet cycle.
I'm stealing your route. I've been to and through Fairplay several times but never went up in to Breckenridge from there. Was looking for a decent lunch ride tomorrow. Just hope we don't get stuck behind a bunch of people pulling campers when we come back.
If if you happen to see this post some time tonight, I'm curious what that road 9 is like between Fairplay and Breckenridge.

By the way met up with sandman76 this morning for a kick ass ride to Guffey. Hadn't done that before, amazing scenery, good roads, not too much traffic. The worst was making the decision to take 25 from the Springs back to the metro area-10 mph for a good 20-30 minutes with no obvious reason for the slow down.
Thanks. Got my group on board with making the trip tomorrow. Should be a good day. Definitely better than being stuck in the upper 90 temps here in town.
I hunt out of a cabin in Guffey and it is a constant parade of motorcycles and tourists.
Yep. Had a feeling that we should have gotten off the crapshoot that I25 has become at Monument. Need to start listening to those voices in my head.Quote:

Might try the 470/285 route from the DTC to Fairplay, for the first time, next weekend. I've taken the car multiple times, but never the Harley. Just ordered saddle bags, but they will not get here in time. Luckily, the wife can be my outfitter since we are headed to the same cabin.
