I was talking about this exact trip with Tommy and Bonwilder a few weeks ago. We always stay in Ouray to do the passes. We are planning a trip out there for 2009. Would love to make it a group trip  [thumbsup]

We should get the dates for the Colorado crew's annual Ouray bash next year, and crash it... er I don't like that word. Let's say rent some rooms at their hot springs resort and show up unannounced. Maybe we could even kidnap Toasty if he shows up.  [evil]

This is in the first few miles of Mineral Creek, just off of Million Dollar hwy.



Dropping down into Telluride on Imogene. This was TIGHT!! Much worse for me than Black Bear.

Taking Ophir (I believe) out of Telluride to get back to Ouray

Sounds like a great idea  ;D  We usually stay at the KOA cabins a few miles down. They have the best parking for our rigs, and it is nice having a campfire in the mountains.

Slag,

Those are awsome pix.  I gotta get one of those white MB adventure truck thingies.  What's it called?

OMG!! Slag those pics are sick I want to go do that so bad. I have a '82 Jeep Waggy that I need to set up right but haven't had the cash to bother with it to do just this type of trip. My bro has a '06 Rubicon he gets out with. I will try with all my power to get  Andi to come on this trip with me. Anybody think kids should stay home or go?

Sunday Aprilia riding roommate Tim and I rode up to Jerome, AZ.  Some nice twisties, but too much traffic, and waaayyy too many designer bikers with ugly choppers, doo-wrags, and assless chaps.

We let out of Phoenix at 6am and it felt like 40 degrees.  After riding about an hour we pulled over for coffee.  Tim had an electric vest (and a fairing) and he was complaining more than I was about the cold.

Hour and a half later back on the road.

By the time we pulled into Jerome (elevation about 5000 feet) the weather was glorious!  Perfect skies and perfect temperature for riding in full gear.

Took some pix of the beautiful ladies there, but they're not developed.  That's okay, we're going back next week.  (Apologies to Groucho Marx!)

Actually, didn't take pix, but will be returning with my digital SLR soon.

Dude, you're smokin' crack!  Those ain't hills.  Those be potholes.  And the bayou country is about as flat and featureless as Olive Oil in an old Popeye cartoon!
