Well, the Pikes Peak ride is over and it really was great. Some even referred to it as “a life changing experience”. I will eventually post the full details of the trip including pictures and video, but I am still sifting through all the pictures and video to try to organize it in a way that it will all make sense. It really was a very eventful trip and it is hard to remember all the things I want to include. I finished editing the video I took of the ride to the top of Pikes Peak this evening so if you want to see that you can click here. One of the most common questions people are asking me is if Deals Gap remains “My Favorite Place”. I have to honestly say that the scenery in Colorado really does beat out the Smoky Mountains, but that is the only thing that edges them out. The roads in Colorado are not nearly as fun to ride as they are around the Gap, and we really did not see a lot of motorcycles in Colorado. So yes, Deals Gap is still the best! The answer to the second most asked question is: “Yes, my ass did hurt really, really bad when I arrived in Colorado.”
