Spring ride - Denver area

[ells]

Weather's look'n good. Waterman and I talked about meeting near Hudson for a NE plains ride this Sunday, first full day of spring. Any one interested chime in.

AGR, would have considered south but suspect that you're tied up.

Ells, I am interested but I have to get the bike back together and tested. Hopefully it won't be still leaking.

Ells, I'll have to make a last minute decision. I'm making an offer on a new place in North Cherry Creek today and putting a lot of our stuff in storage to get ours ready to list this weekend.

I'll just have to see how far I get. I'm renting a truck this Saturday and a storage unit, so Sunday will just depend on if I get done or not.

Thanks for the heads up here.

My wife flies to Europe on Friday, not sure what time, but it's supposed to be 72 and sunny...if it works with getting her to the airport do you have a long lunch on Fri? That might be dreaming with all that I've got going, but don't hurt to through it out there :)

[ells]

Joel, Now you have added incentive to get it back together. Let us know.

Dan, Tomorrow noontime could work. How about Wondervu or Golden Gate State Park, maybe up one and down the other? Pick meeting point (intersection with 93)/time(after 11:45) and I'll be there or call your cell before 11A.

How about it new guys, would Sunday work for ya? --- Perryco, Toykobilly or others, Mtn 1600 are you still around? Routes optional. Meeting in Hudson gets us towards Waterman's homebase.

Yeah, you know me too well....Sunday is a work day.
Have a great time guys, and shoot a few pics for your ride report.

Ells,

Have it back together. Didn't leak when it was idling for 5 minutes. I am planning on taking it out for a ride tomorrow and do a good check on it.

[dantama]

Ells, in case you hit here and don't check your voice mail...I need to take my wife to the airport for her flight that leaves at 11 something.

It's going to be great weather, but I wouldn't be able to go till mid afternoon :(

Sunday would be fun and nice to finally meet some of you guys, but I'm already RSVPd to head down to Colorado Springs with the Colorado Harley Riders meetup.com group (picnic!) ... So far, interesting group, and we've had some pretty good sized groups ... only about 85% Harleys and they don't snicker too much at me. :)

Baring that, it would be cool to meet some of you, if you do go out tomorrow for a lunch ride. We're having a management induced crisis at work (again) today, so I'm not sure what my day will hold, but I can break free, can your local non-Nomad rider tag along? I promise not to get close enough that people actually think you acknowledge my existence.

Oh, I just realized it might be polite to post info about the Sunday ride, in case anyone else was interested ...

Hi Sam, thanks for responding. Not too formal here, our rides have just been rather impromptu whoever chimes in here that they are interested and goes from there, sometimes just 2 or three folks but would be good to see more, and probably could use some help in organization if we do get a bigger group.

As for this Sunday, Waterman suggested meeting at a truck stop near Hudson but I don't have any more details.

Looks like noon today won't work, at least as envisioned since Dan and my schedules, and now yours, don't match up.

Would be glad to make some future plans for a local get together. Love to see a nice bunch of Nomads rolling down the road. :)

Yeah, I'm definately not making it ... got a conf call request 24 minutes before 10:00am and I'm still on it. (of course)

The joy of spending hours on end on the phone, listening to a bunch of people trying to "prove" someone else caused the problem.

[ells]

Waterman, Which truck stop and when? I'll be there. Maybe Dan will get inspired and join us. Anyone else is welcome, just check here for Waterman or me to give the details.

[waterman]

Ells, got the bike back together and no leaks after 20 miles. Just needs a good bath.

The Truck stop is Love's on the north side of the interstate. If you are coming from Ft. Lupton, you will hit the truck stop on your left side before you hit the interstate.

What time works for you? It's not quite 2 hours for me with one gas stop on the way (cheaper in Ft. Morgan than here).

Dan, get your crap done!!!

[dantama]

Got a rental truck lined up in the morning and a couple of guys to help me with the big stuff, so I won't make it. Sounds like a great time though, wish it was another week.

All this work and I'm not even moving! I'm just trying to make the place look bigger by emptying a lot of stuff.

[ells]

Its only a little over an hour to Hudson for me, Around noon or earlier would work. Then again we could meet way earlier and head down to Denver and show Dan how to move furniture, on second thought, noon works pretty good . :)

Will be going very close to perryco's house to get to Hudson... hello, anybody home?
