Great day for a ride in Colorado - Ducati.ms

Last week snow, yesterday cold and windy, today 55 degrees and sunny skies. I thought I would take the Tricolore out as she still needs to be broken in, and I'm glad I did. The streets were a little sandy, remenants from last weeks snow. The mountain roads had some run off so you had to be careful, but I still managed to find a few placed to open it up. The sound of Termi's!

Pics taken at Red Rocks in Colorado....

Been there with the TC as well. Good to get out. Made it to Palmer Lake yesterday and Deckers today. Indeed, nice to let the Termi vocal cords get exercised.

Let me know when you're on the front range and we'll hook up for a ride and a coffee. You pics are much nicer than my phone pics

You guys suck...It's still colder than hell down here in Alamosa!!

Had my 996 out Sunday too... Nice day. Windy as HELL on Ute pass though. Nice easy ride. It's amazing how the dirt and mag chloride stick around pounded into the road surface until it rains for a few days... Soon, the pavement will be sticky again, and the gravel/sand will be gone... Deckers/Sedalia/83 loop... here I come!!

Windy and cold as heck here today. I need to rinse of my bike after riding on Sunday. I went from Boulder to Morrison, up to Evergreen, back down to drop my friend back off in Morrison, and then I tooled around Red Rocks and came home. The roads are a bit sandy to say the least.... We need some California sunshine!

I thought about going for a ride this past weekend, but didn't.
I decided to continue my garage project while the roads are still "iffy", so that way I have a cool garage done by spring and I can spend all of my free time riding.

I live just outside of Boulder, and I work in Boulder during the week. I would be up for a coffee and possibly a ride once the weather is more cooperative.

Shoot me a PM if you wanna.

Let's connect for a ride this season... either by PM or by post in the Rocky Mountain section here.

That would be cool... Let's see if we could hook up Duc fest!!

Gaaaah! I am green with envy! We were stuck at a company event all weekend--first really warm weekend and we couldn't go riding.

We'd enjoy meeting up with a Duc group ride when the weather warms up.

Is anyone else here a member of the DOC in Denver? Pam sent out that email about going to the Desmosedici launch party but I haven't heard a follow-up of when it's going to happen...
