Where is the 17th and 18th ROCKS!!! option?  Anything earlier than this risks closure of the highest passes in the rockies. You don't want to ride all the way to Colorado and not be able to hit the biggies like Monitor and Independence passes.

Last year's (and previous I believe) meet was on Tuesday/Wednesday, rather than Wednesday/Thursday, with the group dinner on Tuesday night.  So I recommend the dates should be shifted one day to June 16/17.

P.S.  You know you just volunteered to plan this, right?  Bigok

Thanks Stef!!!!  Thumbsup

I picked 23-24, just because I'd would need to take the least days off work.  But like chornbe said, this far out anything works.

How bout mid month?  I'd hate to be too early and not be able to hit some of the passes.  OTOH, Late month won't work out for me due to a vacation.

Crossing my fingers that I can make this one.

Ehh, not so much.  3 years running, still can't make any of the dates.  Maybe in 2010.

For this area, the later the better. It can still be pretty damn cool in the evening in early June, and for those interested in getting up on some high dirt roads, there will be a lot of snow still around then.
