Default Potential Colorado Trips...
Hey guys a spent some time last night mapping 3 different trips through Front Range. I actually planned 9 but 3 will be a good start.. I tried to make them central so people had a chance to attend from further away.. take a look give me some feed back and we will set some dates.


Trip #1 plan.

Trip #3 plan.

I decided to go ahead and have RMCR do the work since they can get it done much faster than I can. I was going to do it over the winter but I delayed because I was thinking about buying a C7 (I got over that).

I could drive my Sky Redline but it's not quite the same...

I might join in on the swing through RMNP and down the backside from Loveland. That is an excellent Vette route you're looking at.

I’m sorry I should have explained it depends on the date because my calendar for work standby does not go that far forward. If I’m on standby I can’t leave the metro area.
Time will tell.
