Thats awesome. I'm flying to colorado springs in 3 hours. Then, I will spend 4 years of my life there (at cc). Glad to know there are some good biking trails. Oh, I heard its supposed to snow friday. Doesn't look like it though w/ that weather.

I'm jealous. It needs to hurry up and dry out here on the east coast.

The rocket 88 is still one of my favorite FS frames. It's really stable when you get haulin.

Colorado Springs, eh? That's a shorter drive than Tahoe for what appears to be similar terrain. Have y'all got many bears out there?
