You've got to be in Blu to show off the new steering wheel wrap, don't you?

We'll be along for part of the ride, probably hopping off at point B in Loveland. Look forward to seeing everyone.

If you drop off at point B (Loveland) you'll be missing the BEST part of the drive

Aw, I'm sorry to hear that but gotta get back for work. Oh well, I imagine doing part of a ride is better than none.

You are absolutely right, part of a ride is ALWAYS better than no ride at all.

See everyone Saturday.

Thank you Jamie, pictures will be up a later, we just got home had to stop in FOCO then again in Longmont.

Nice seeing everyone, new folks and older members, wish a few who came out to 95th Street to see the C&C could have motored with us, I know how it is when family get's busy, kids become teens and school summer activities are first.

Join us when you can.

See my Picasa link in my Siggy, look for SP-C&C or something like that.

Don

Stove Prairie Road pictures

After a much-needed nap, I was finally able to load my pictures. It was a great day with great weather (most of the time!), good food, good friends and MINIs. Thanks Jamie for this ride...even though I was Blu's passenger, Stove Prairie Road is a fun road!

We were driving thru the fire area a week ago. Now it is all closed off due to the High Park fire which at this time is over 10,000 acres

That is really bad since it is a great road and I really want to try a MasonVille north and the new road that goes to Bellvue, Rist Canyon Road.

Maybe in September.

Btw, nice video.

I feel terrible for those folks living up there . Colorado is an absolute tinderbox this yr. Be careful out there, we were lucky to have avoided the current, ongoing disaster / fire.
