Thanks guys. Good ride. Some pretty trails and some adventures. Old Denver has some beautiful areas that you never see from I-70 or the main streets. Those old neighborhoods, lakes and parks were a treat. Glad we all made it back to the start point in one piece. Thank you and let's do it again. Maybe next time think about a cook out to end the ride?

Fun day, great ride, I had a blast. Everything went smooth except for the shift kit incident. A cook out and a bit longer of a ride sounds good for the next meet.

My Camera died, or sumpin'. Only two photos came out, the rest were just black.
Never had that happen before. The stupid thing works today though.
Anyway, here's the best, and it's not very good. Sorry guys. :(

hey, the shift kit incident was fun. i got a chance with my shifter kit bike to tow Ben's bike several miles. I'm darn glad its geared for hill climbing, it was a breeze. I'll never leave home again without a tow rope.

The shift kit incident was caused by the bottom bracket cartridge backing out on its own just slightly enough to cause it to oscillate enough to throw the chain off the rear cog...causing the derailleur to get fubared

I guess red loctite is the solution for the next ride on the cartridge and also on my set screws for the jackshaft drive gear.

p.s. i'm sure glad no one wore spandex on our ride.

Let's do that again, guys.
Come on, make some plans, (Frank, we're listening) Where and when? Those trails we did last time were beautiful. We could do them again or try some new places.
End of May? Sooner? I'm ready and waiting. Come on Denver riders, speak up. :)

I'm ready and waiting as well. "Will" my friend that came last time, he got hit by a car and now his bike is now out of commission. The motor and he are okay, however, the bike is trashed. If I had to take a guess it will probably be 2 weeks before he's mobile again; any longer and I'm gonna have to leave him behind...

I'll get the ball rolling and post some plans. Hopefully we can get more then 7 members this next time

I've got a buddy who is a hard core pedal (trail/mountain bike) rider. He's never ridden a motorized bike but it won't take much to teach him. I'll loan him one for the next ride.

how about just ride to Golden from Denver....that would be a nice start.

For what its worth....I bought Tom's trike at our first group ride but lost my full time job yesterday. I got a temp part time job already but would like to sell the "funny little trike" as its called. The only thing I've done do it is increase the axle sprocket from 41 tooth to 48 tooth. Its still crazy fast.

Sorry guy, I highly doubt that any of us will be riding down to Pueblo any time soon or in the future. As far as the upcoming cruise, It will incorporate some more trails and some downtown riding.
