Ha. Would have been easier to deal with. That's sleet that piled up when I had to bail during the worst of it. A real beatch
Looks like a lot of fun.
Sucks being so exposed sometimes... Hail, ouch!
Worst part was that I couldn't see. Close my face shield and fog up. Open it and get pelted with rain and hail. 25 miles on a 4-6% downhill grade with lots of curves at 15-20 mph
I woulda grayed out....
I hear ya. It came down to two choices: basically curl up and quit or per those infamous Harley words: Screw it, lets ride. Dang sure made a memory.Quote:

You gonna need a brake job after this trip.
Got to Pike's Peak and found it closed today for a friggin' movie shoot. :mad:
Yea, Fin, straight to the shop when I get back.
Go to Garden of the Gods Park near Colorado Springs, awesome photo ops and won't wear out your brakes.
It's open tomorrow. Gonna try again. Want to have all three peaks in one season.
