Great Lakes - Possible Aspen Road Trip

I have a bit of a connection for a first class condo about 250 feet from the base of Aspen mountain.

There is great riding in the area obviously (where Mr. Lance likes to train).

Who might be interested in a road trip?

If we drive out, thinking 4 guys, maybe 4 nights there, about $250 a guy for lodging. The condo has full kitchen, sleeps 5 comfortably, full amenities ...

Who might be interested, let's say first or second week of June?

Damn.. this is a nice. But my vacation is already gone. :(

You're about 4 days late and a few dollars short, pal.

Check back in 2010, yo.

I'm intrigued...

June 5/6/7 is out for me, but aside from that, I like this thought.

Ohhh .... could be fun ... anyone else? I'll bring it up at the Tuesday night ride ...

Several events in Glenwood springs on 12-14th June. TT, excellent RR and downtown crit. I was there last year and highly recommend it.

Downtown crits are my thing. (not very hilly) I would totally go that.

Sounds great to me too (mostly the TT part ... :)

We need a couple more.

As crits go, it's quite technical. 0.5 mi with 6 corners. There's a moderate slope that makes a couple of the corners quite tricky.

Sounds pretty good. >10 corners/mile makes for excitement.

So, I'm pretty much in for this if it's the June 12-14 time, pending the fine details. Is the plan awaiting more participants? I'd just like to get a handle on it so I can nail down my work schedule.

Let a brother know.
