COLORADO JULY 4TH!!!!
« on: April 25, 2006, 09:19:41 PM »
I noticed on the Colorado site we have LOTS of Texans going.  IF any groups are coming up thru Amarillo, let me know.  We might be able to do a LARGE group ride.  I can track down some inexpensive places to stay.  Maybe a supper the night before since Snakebite moved back to H-Town.  Joe

Joe,
I know there are at least 3 maybe 4 of us coming thru Amarillo from this direction.  VTreX, RD, RockNRoll, and myself are planning on meeting up in Belton area on Wed. night, June 28 and heading that way on Thursday June 29.

Also....I've got a room in Colorado at the LaQuinta, if anybody is needing a place to stay - wanting to share expenses - let me know.

I make it by myself in 5 1/2 hours.  I stop for fuel 3 times.  I don't dilly dally around. :D  IF you want to take a scenic route from Trinidad NM. around to La Veta, it adds about 45 minutes to an hour.  If you stop for lunch on the way, add another hour.  But just flying and getting to the hotel is 5 1/2 hours at VTX speed.

I'm like Joe and think it would be pretty cool to spend Thursday night in Amarillo, get the Texas gang together and ride more or less, as a group to arrive at the hotel at about the same time.

Probably too many to ride as a single group but we can do two or more small groups that can re-form for lunch and arrival in Denver. It sure would be great to roar in like the bad-as@#es we are!!! 8)

You could stay in Raton, NM and be 3 to 3.5 hours away from the La Quinta.  Joe
