First, thanks to prestob, Esteboatan, Dan28 and gtmalone for Route Direction! Totally enhanced the trip!
It rained everyday at 2pm, some we missed, some we didn't. Only small issue I had was on Trail Ridge Road, 14,000 feet and vertical edge drop off.. gave me the hebe gibbies.. couldn't even look.. just rode on through ! ha
99.5% of the pics were taken while riding so... had a lot of knee and crotch shots.. here are a few that come out..
I recognize a lot of these views, it's definitely a great area. It's still fun riding up there time and again. Still get those jitters on of the roads above the treeline myself. Exposure is definitely scary.
Was talking to a neighbor when I got back. He had just returned from Estes Park area, but when with family in car. Said on the Trail Ridge Rd, there was a Harley guy sitting on the curb with head in hands. He bike was 500 feet below.. man.... !
Nice. Some of the pics look familiar but some are places I didn't make it to. One of my favorite rides was up near Mt. Evans. I recorded it with my GoPro, but transferred it to a portable hard drive and the HD died. I took that HD apart put it in docking station I have that it would fit into, no luck. Tried slaving it into a PC but it seemed to have damage to the platers and all the footage from that particular day was lost.
Oh damn, that sucks ! I have a SJCAM with a hog collar mount.. and NEVER turned it on !! Had a camera around my neck and just took picks.
I went up the Mt Evans and the other folk off to the left of it, Squaw Pass, a nice ride.
The Guanella Pass was a nice ride too.
