How about we meet between 9am and 9:30am for a bagel and coffee, tea etc at a Starbucks close by? You pick one close by the mall since the mall may not be open that early. That will get us to Grand Lake around noon. Have you ever eaten at the hotel on the lake? I can't remember the name, I have only been there once or twice so we may have to scout out the town to see what is available.

Well, this sounds like a fun trip, but I won't be able to go again. Sundays are not a free day for me with Church services from 10AM - Noon.

You all have fun.

We can meet for coffee for sure. How about:

Caribou Coffee
12624 Washington Lane
Englewood, CO 80112

It's just east of I-25 on Lincoln about 1/2 mile or so.

Let's shoot for 9:30AM. olamar, sorry you cannot make it. We'll definitely have to set up some Saturday runs. Anyone else in Colorado is welcome to join us.

GREAT TIME, it was nice to meet your son, get them started early. Stay in touch, drop me a note from London. Next run needs to be on a Saturday at the end of July. Maybe we can get a couple additional cars to come along.

Hey Gondorian good to hear from you. Itsky and I were talking this weekend about Saturday July 26th. How does that sound to you? I'm open for suggestions on where to go. We could take a drive up to Cripple Creek/Victor for lunch then on through Florissant and home. The Sedalia to Deckers to Woodland Park to Garden of the Gods was a fun run also.

Maybe there would be a few others that might like to make the trip. We do have time to work on it.

I will be gone the whole month of June and first part of July but you guys could plan something in June also.

Stay in touch,

R.J. (blackberry)

Any one of those sound good to me and the 26th sounds great. Plenty of time to plan. One of these days we need to do the Million Dollar Highway. That would be a great ride. Cheers.

That is really pretty country, I travelled the state for twelve years and I must admit that Southern Colorado is Gods country. Rocky Mountain National Park in the northern part of the state and Durango in the southern part. Colorado is really hard to beat if you love the outdoors. The only problem with the state is that it's a long way from point A to point B. People from the east could travel between two or three states in the same time it takes us to move from city to city.

Enjoy the summer

Just a bump from western colorado Any upcoming plans or cruises? We have a time trials type race coming up on the 24th of this month at grand junction motor speedway if anyone is interested. If so, drop me a line and I'll pass on the registration information. If memory serves its about 75 bucks or so for all day.

Hey all, looks like i might be in the co springs area on the 13th and 14th? My better half has some classes over there so i might have some time to kill if anyone wants to grab a bite to eat or get together.
