Snowy Range Ride

NoCo IMRG chapter members will be riding on Saturday, September 24th, …doing the full, Snowy Range loop!

This is a 280 mile all day ride where we will ride to Laramie and across the Snowy Range Scenic Byway. This scenic ride takes us through the splendor of the Snowy Range Mountains with awe-inspiring mountain peaks. As we exit near Saratoga, we will head South to Riverside where we will stop for lunch at the Bear Trap. The ride route will then take us back into Colorado where we will loop back into Wyoming to Laramie, and finally back to Ted’s Place where the ride will end (the ride will also start at Ted’s Place).

Here are the details:

• Meet at Ted’s Place (6511 US-287, Laporte, CO 80535), a gas station off of US287, at 8:00 am on Saturday, September 24th
• Kickstands up at 8:30 am.
• Arrive in Riverside ~12:45 for lunch
• Back at Ted’s place ~4:45pm
• We will make some scenic and gas stops along the way.

The weather forecast is looking good – sunny with a high of 61 degrees, no rain, and low wind. However, parts of this ride approach 11,000 feet in elevation! So please dress in layers–we will experience warm-to-cold-to-hot along the way. Also make sure you have gloves to keep your hands warm.

Come prepared to ride, seek, and explore with a:

• Full tank
• Empty bladder
• And extra water to stay hydrated

This ride is rated 5 (1=easy – 5=difficult) due to long duration, changing conditions, and fun mountain highway riding. Road Officers for this ride are Randall Holman (Lead) and Ted Wolfe (Sweep).
