Tuesday Cruisin'

February 3, 2009
Fort Collins, CO

The sky is blue, water is wet and the Motorcycle Gods are smiling down on us this week...

We don't know where Ol' Man Winter is hiding although we suspect he's up to mischief in the mountains. It certainly looks like it, doesn't it? That's blowing snow over the peaks in the high country.

The Front Range forecast this week is a gift of 50s and 60s weather with no precipitation and mild winds. Yippee!

We hopped on The Ride about mid-morning and headed west and up. Something you need to know about us, if a destination is not pre-set (before we get out of the drive) then you can bank on the fact we are headed west and west from just about anywhere on the I-25 corridor is up.

Our ride took us beside the cutoff and the still partially frozen south shore of Horsetooth Reservoir. We decided against a dam ride today choosing instead the route through the tiny communities of Stoudt and Masonville and continuing along the west side of Loveland, out onto the flatlands south of Loveland and via a wide, circuitous route home through mini-ranch country.




The eastern shore of Loveland's lake was packed with geese. We think because we have had such a mild winter in these parts that many of the geese didn't migrate further south.

If Tim didn't have to go to work, we'd still be out there somewhere - dang it!
