I cherish those memories on the Peak-to-Peak, St. Vrain North and South, Loveland Pass, Squaw Pass, Deckers, the old I25-to-36 lefthander, and a host of other places. Just being on a motorcycle in the mountains doing 100+ everywhere you dared...nothing like it.
Of course I wouldn't do any of that nowadays, too much traffic and too many inattentive drivers, back when I was being reckless no one had cell phones and texting didn't exist.
