Default Rocky Mtn vacation status report

Well, we are on day 4 of our 9 day vacation, currently in Gunninson, Colorado.&nbsp\\; Have many pictures, but don't have the right software on this 'puter to re-size then to post.&nbsp\\; Scenery is outstanding, no rain while riding yet - probably get into some of that tomorrow.&nbsp\\; Either that or "dry" thunderstorms.&nbsp\\; WTF?&nbsp\\;
Rode over the Royal Gorge bridge, but the biggest "pucker ride" so far has been Skyline Drive, which starts outside of Canon City.&nbsp\\; What a ride!&nbsp\\; The pics I'll post later don't do it justice.&nbsp\\;
Tomorrow we're off to Durango and 2 more days of KOA Kabins.&nbsp\\; Did Sat, Sun, and Mon at KOAs.&nbsp\\; Tonite is Best Western Express.&nbsp\\; OMG!&nbsp\\; I may wake up tomorrow as a biker.
Have a hapy 4th - [sm=biker2.gif]&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\;

if you are running XP you can download power toys "image resizer"
then highlight ALL your pics, right click, then choose resize, then BAM
the pics are resized smaller and you still have the orig

Ride safe, ride smart, and ENJOY

I've been over&nbsp\\;Skyline Drive in a car...never thought about riding it on the bike though...but I can't imagine anything that would make me take a bite out of my seat than riding over the Royal Gorge bridge!&nbsp\\;

You will probably read this to late, but I hope you do&nbsp\\;the Durango&nbsp\\;- Silverton narrow gauge railroad.&nbsp\\; An Iron Horse trip worth taking.

I'm in Colorado also on vacation, I did the Skyway ride, my wife is still pissed I took her up there. Thats one ride I will not do again!!
And not cause of the wife. Doing Indepenace Pass was a cake walk compared to this.
