    Nice ride, and welcome. There aren't many of us Vifers in CO, but a few of us try to get togather. Hopefully we'll be putting something togather soon now that weather is trying to get better. You may want to subscribe to this linked thread to keep yourself posted on any future group rides. Untill then; Keep the rubber side down.

    No sand. The road was very clear. It was more dangerous getting thru Fort Collins with the cagers. Had one "oh shit" moment with the front wheel squeeling when some dumb ass thought about pulling out in front of me.

    As far as riding next weekend - it's too early to make plans for me. There's weather, wife, and a project to deal with http://vfrworld.com/forums/3rd-4th-...9-new-project-bike-hits-stable-90-vfr750.html

    But if we don't get together, let me recommend you plan on getting out away from traffic and do some nice riding without too many cagers to worry about for starters.

    Tink,
    no worries just meant it as suggestive.
    Yea my first ride was from Castle Rock to Broomfield yesterday lots of traffic downtown not exactly a fun first ride after about 8 years since I last rode. This is my first bike, but always rode my Dad's machines and dirt bikes as a kid

    I'll pm with my info

    my job is sucking but 7 days a week doesn't sound like fun. And then I'm guessing I'd have less passion for wrenching in my own garage.

    Some day I'm thinking the weather might turn and people on the front range might be able to ride motorcycles again.
