deadman : I think we should suggest to Mr. torqueman that he deputize you so you can help arrest all the spammers.

It seams to be a growing job and you are a natural!

Ha! No way man, he's way more diplomatic than me. I just like making fun of them.

I ventured up that pass several years ago. I was looking for a short cut to Aspen. But I was in a Toyota Tercel. I made it across some streams and around some big boulders. I turned around when I saw the Jeeps being winched up and realized it would be kind of hard to explain to Alamo how their rental car got up there.

Congratulations on a challenging ride. It looks like fun.

Boy, does that bring back some memories!

A friend and I rode his jeep over Mosquito pass many years ago. They may have cleaned it up some but as I remember it, it was not a ride anyone would want to do on a road bike. Thanks for the posting and the pics.

I was out your way a cuppla years ago. The pix brought some great memories to mind. Keep posting that stuff. Vicarious life is better than no life.

Very cool. The roads don't look too bad. My Strom could do those from the looks of things. I would want to put a little more aggressive off road tires on them than what I got now.

It was a pretty good ride Saturday with the brother in-law. He dropped his bike once, and I came close to it a few times. Only damage was to my $150 Marsee tank bag that I strapped to the rear rack. Lesson learned what is secure for the street is not anywhere close to secure for off road duty. It came off early on and jammed itself int he rear wheel. Lucky for me I was going slow, and I was also lucky that the only think inside it that took damage was a water bottle.
