It's the Bay Area. There are the most stuck-up people per capita than anywhere I know of in the US. Let's see if I get flamed for that remark. Remember, I grew up there and still work there.

It will be interesting to compare. Looks like a good deal.

Brad had the new tires mounted today that I ordered and two were bad. So I lose again until I get replacements. You coming by this weekend to give me my strut bar? I just got home so I will be here tomorrow too.

There is a huge difference in ride when you switch from runflats. Even 40 series tires fell softer.

Very much so. I decided to drive home down the freeway, as it was latter than I thought. Rode very smooth.

Some of us have to work for a living. Want may have nothing to do with reality.

Steve: growth in Boulder has been limited now. The real blight though is Superior and Louisville to the East. The growth there runs all the way from the top of the hill on 36 as you leave Boulder all the way to Westminister at Wadsworth. That whole coridor along the Boulder Turnpike is chalk full of sprawl and a new mall.

Yeah, I heard that Boulder had merged with those towns and has almost met Longmont by way of the Diagonal Highway. The 36 corridor between Boulder and Denver used to be a fast commute. Last time I was there, there were numerous new on and off ramps and subdivisions and shopping malls slowing traffic to a crawl. Even when I lived in Boulder, I was looking up the hill in places like Nederland and Allenspark to live. I was fully into rockclimbing and mountain biking at that time and spent all my free time in Rocky Mountain NP and trails along the Peak to Peak Highway. That seems so long ago, now.
