Default CCC - Drive on July 3 or 4?

Who is up for a drive this next weekend? I'm fresh back from the CAA and anxious to get in the mountains!

Let me check with the "boss" — see what's going on.

Too much flat land driving?

There were plenty of nice twisty roads in the Missouri country, but I do miss those Colorado mountains!

I think that says volumes right there.

Well, for anyone interested, let's plan on Saturday for a run. I was thinking that we could hit 103 around Idaho Springs and then hit 119 from Blackhawk to Boulder. Should we meet up for lunch/late breakfast first (maybe an earlier start would be better)?

About what time were you thinking?
We have plans later in the day to meet up with our friends in Golden for the Cruise, and for dinner, but a drive along 103/119 would be great fun.

BC.

Hey Itsky,

Sorry about the bit of a delay in getting back to you.
Bat had a death in her family on Wednesday, so things are a bit up in the air right now.

We should be able to join you tomorrow morning for breakfast.
We shall have to see how she's doing for driving, however.

So, tomorrow morning, 9 am.

Is anyone else coming?
Visitors from far away are always welcome.

BC.

I'm so sorry to hear that. Send my condolences to Bat. I think we will have another join us for sure, dougw33. He is a new member with an SRT6. I'm hoping that Bill, H82BL8, and Otis (olamar) will join us as well.

Bladecutter, it was a great ride today once we got past all the traffic.

That it was.
Its always a pleasure to go on a drive with you.

I did get to have a nice conversation with that Jefferson County Sheriff that was hidden in the trees up that big long hill where the speed limit goes from 50 to 40, however.

But even that can't put a damper on how great a day it was.

I'm glad you didn't mind following me while I tooled around on my bike, too.

We should try and get everyone together before the Golden Cruise in August, if we can.

BC.

Bummer on the "chat". My radar detector picked one up on the way back (probably the same one). We can try for another run for sure. I'll be at my 20th high school reunion the 30th through Aug 1. The weekend before may be good on either Saturday or Sunday.
