Thanks for sharing. I think you are a snowman in real life. No way would I take that ride this time of year even in a cage.

 

Dave, The mountain does indeed inspire. Be sure to call ahead on the conditions. I'm 80 miles west of the peak and looking towards it yesterday, it was a shimmering white thing from the recent snow. I rode it on Tuesday, the day before the front came in.

Lonnie... If a wintertime ride to the summit isn't on your short list , be sure to point your front wheel towards PP next summer!

 

Great video! Some day soon I hope to do same. Thanks for sharing.

 

[QUOTE=sfarson;9008555]Hey thanks everyone!

Tod... I made volume #1 so exhaustive and complete, I didn't leave myself any room for #2! Even a 2nd edition will be tough. It has been suggested I reapply the same formula to surrrounding states.. NM/AZ/UT/WY, etc.

While we would enjoy that, I think your wife might have something to say about extended absences to accomplish such a feat...... Or, on the otherhand......

 

MOST excellent! May have to make it a destination some day.

Thank you so very much for sharing. Mark H.

 

very nice

 

Thank you sincerely for making the video. I almost felt like I was there...

 

Nice picture! Been there several time during the Hill Climb week. Always a great time.

 

I did the Pikes Peak ride in 1972 on my 1972 XLCH. It was not paved then. It was late June and it was snowing at the peak. Going up was no big deal (to a dumb kid like me), but coming down I kinda over-heated my brakes, and had to stop and let them cool down at about the half-way point coming down. Your video brought back some fond memories. Thanks for posting it! I wish I had some photos from that trip, but back then, I did not even own a camera. LOL
