Hello from Denver, CO!

You might want to look into the road up Mt Evans if you haven't ridden it already. Absolutely breathtaking and twisty as all bejezus. There is a small fee once you get to the ranger station but its only a couple of bucks for a motorcycle if I remember right.

Two bits of advice on that road:
1) When the ranger warns you about the dips and the washboard....HE MEANS IT!!!! The road is good up to the ranger station and then it gets a little bumpy, then it gets REALLY bumpy. I was following a 911 Targa and a 69 Camaro when we came up on the first "dip". The cars dissappeared completely and then came out out the other side. I was only about 15-20 feet behind them and all going very slow.

2) Do not under any circumstances wear ear plug while riding up that far. I forgot while riding my TLR (very loud) up to Mt Evans and pulled them out at the little lake observatory area (13,500 ft?). I was fine for about 2-3 minutes and then got super dizzy, couldn't understand other peoples speech and started to shake violently for about 15 minutes. Classic high altitude sickness which I have never suffered from at that altitude and haven't since but ear plugs don't let your ears adjust gradually like they need to.

That having been said, it is one of the most amazing rides I have ever been on.
