There's probably people out there that feel like BRP is "crappy" ;-)

I like reading and hearing about rides I don't hear about every single month... IMO BRP is overplayed

I seriously doubt there are many who feel the BRP is "crappy" and harder still to believe it wouldn't make ANY top ten list. But that's just my opinion.

There is some fine riding in Colorado. The Blue Ridge Parkway is also very nice and I ride it often. You have got to go west to see mountains. I read the mag sometimes, but I really don't think it is that great.

Me and 12 other riders from this Forum just put 1,000 miles riding the roads of "crappy" Colorado. I didn't hear any complaints.

For this insightful list the magazine should be carefully placed in the trash bin. I live very close to BRP and can't get enough of it even though I ride it practically every other weekend.

That's right, John!
I forgot to mention 11 of the riders were from all over the U.S. and 1 from Canada.

Was it the magazine or just some reader that wrote in with his top 10? I remember reading it but have since thrown the magazine away.
