Headed up the Grand Mesa.

Here is a nice shot last summer headed up Colorado's Grand Mesa from the north side. What a great road! Was at the Top of the Rockies rally in Paonia and took a solitary trip to burn up a couple hours.

That got me feeling a bit blue. Is this any better?

Hey! What's that big metal thing hooked onto the rear axle?

Yes, it is better, Mike. I forgot that it took me 1200 photos with my camera before I figured out that I needed to put the white balance on auto! This was #1151. How did you fix it?

I believe it is some sort of ballast to keep the rear tire hooked up.

Mark.. I know that bike! But don't know the road for exploring 65 and the Grand Mesa is on my short list for '07. I hear it is a great ride.
