Well, I know what you mean. Generally riding anywhere in Colorado is better than riding in lots of other places.

Did I mention yet, that I'm jealous EMS'sss trip? When we were there we didn't explore Ouray very well, but I'm pretty sure they have a hot-spring pool there. Probably feel good to go for a dip there after a day on the bike.

Man, that looks so nice right now. I hate winter. This thread remids me that I think I'm living on the wrong side of the Missouri river.

Well, check this weather pattern out here in Texas. We got a dusting of snow last night, but it will be gone today. It's 11 degrees right now with the sun shining. Friday morning I'm going out to our local off road ranch club site for 3 days of camping and riding. It'll be 52 Friday and sunny...it'll be 58 Saturday and sunny...it'll be 68 Sunday and sunny. Now...is that a crazy swing in weather or not?

We're planning a Saturday ride out to Owyhee County. NOAA says it will be 47 and partly sunny. Here you guys are complaining about snow, and I actually want some more of it -- the snowmobile is getting pissed that the bike is getting so much use over the past month . Send some our way...I won't mind . We'll be riding either way.

Hmmmmm wouldn't that be fun. Take off for CO. after work on a Friday, Get there Saturday, ride for 4-5 days and load up and head home. I probably already have too much going on this summer, but it's almost do-able.
