Fall rides in and near Boulder/Denver

I did another Copper Triangle ride last weekend ...in the rain. So my mind has started wandering towards getting some road rides done down dare.

Any interest? I'd like to make 'em longish ...80-120 miles. I'd like to climb some in the foothills too.

Most any day is good. ...but I really like Mondays and Fridays. How 'bout you?

I'm posting here to keep updated if any rides get organized. My schedule is a little hectic right now, so I don't want to start planning something i can't commit to.

Is there a weekday (other than Monday) that works? Snowy? Dex? Valygrl? Anyone?

Fun shouldn't be limited to weekends.

Any other weekday, as long as it's not raining. I might have to schedule a meeting on Wed/Thur, but I can do it very late afternoon.

I ride up deer creek canyon/highgrade road almost every tuesday and thursday. I won't do it in rain but otherwise I'm there.

I generally leave my house (near DU) at 9, and reach the start of Deer Creek Canyon road at 10.

I don't usually go that far (60-70ish) but i go pretty hard in the hills and moderate on the bike path.

let me know what you think..
B.
