On your way stop by Thunder Mountain HD. It's near Loveland/Ft Collins. You can take highway 34 west out of Loveland to Estes Park through The Big Thompson Canyon. You can also take Highway 34 west from Estes to Grand Lake.You'll go through Rocky Mountain National Park this way. It's also known as Trail Ridge Road. It's a great ride with lots of twists and turns and huge elevation changes. There is an Alpine Visitor Center at the top. Be prepared for big temperature changes.Pic from 6/16
