Continental divide ride

[rushes]

Good Morning Russ, are you sober yet? https://www.motorcyclecolorado.com/berthoud_pass.htm Looking for Colorado routing for you, I came across this great web site. One of the passes my friends Michael and Doreen Conner rode was Berthoud pass, so I looked it up. You can use this site to plan your entire CO motorcycle riding vacation!

A couple more cups a coffee, an I'm good!

Thanks for the link. Now I just need to figure out when I'll have time.

I really need to get away for a while....

Coffee? I'm drinking my coffee too, but it has two fingers full of Dickel Brothers Sour Mash in it; one of the best things in life about waking up!

Hey buddy, your Papa Chuy is going to get you routed from Albuquerque to Canuckistan! https://www.motorcycleroads.com/routes/RockyMtn/WY/WY_2.shtml

Check out this website Brother, all of the best Continental Divide motorcycling routes throughout the State of Wyoming!

It don't take much of a nudge ta git you movin, does it...

:lol:

https://www.fjrforum.com/forum//index.php?showtopic=134691 Dos Hombres: If you Goobers don't do the CD ride this Summer, at least come to SW-FOG and have fun riding the mountain passes of Northern New Mexico and Southern Colorado.

Consider yourself cordially invited to SW-FOG 2011, held in Taos, New Mexico September 6-9; large FJR gathering with good times/food and big laughs!

My window of opportunity slammed shut. Either the economy is improving, or I'm quoting too cheap. I hate it when work gets in the way.

Always a possibility to sneak out for a few days. It'd be cool if my new blue bike shows up by then. :thumbsup:

Sounds great, that would be fantastic if you could show off your new blue Yamaha Super Tenere at SW-FOG '11.

https://www.bmwmoa.org/forum/showthread.php?t=54175 Brother rushes, as soon as you sober up you have to read this article. My Friend Kate "Vagabird" of Laramie, WY set out to bag all of Colorado's Ten's on her new silver BMW K1600GT. The 23 Ten's are all of CO's paved passes that are over 10,000 feet in elevation. Follow her routing in exact order she did it and you can bag them all in 5 days time.

Rushes, Chris and Q-Tip: Here is another Continental Divide Ride source for you Goobers! I have asked my buddy Brian Boles, AZ Beemers Club President and the hombre I have ridden offroad many times in Mexico with, for his route recommendations; BB knows the Colorado Rockies really well!

Brian and I spoke just a few minutes ago. And he highly recommended Cottonwood Pass. He rode it on an old Wing, but BB has ridden all over Mexico on an old heavy BMW R100GS. Senor Boles can ride any motorcycle fecking anywhere! By the way, Big-D and Papa Chuy are moving SW-FOG to Colorado next year, in mid-August.

Don, you may remember that way back in '78 I rode my GL1100 Goldwing over a pass in Colorado, but could not remember which one. While poking around a Colorado website, I found the pass. It was Cottonwood pass, we rode it from Buena Vista to Almont. Apparently, the top portion is still not paved. We did camp at Blue Mesa Reservoir, which is why that looked familiar to me when we rode past in 2009. https://www.motorcyclecolorado.com/cottonwood_pass.htm
