Just FYI for those who might be interested in accompanying me on "the long way back" from Taos on Sunday, September 7th: I have booked a room with two double beds at the Rodeway Inn in Delta. If anyone is interested in staying there, please let me know, cost should be about $25 each if two of us stay there.
My planned route on Sunday will be as described below (Taos to Chama to Pagosa Springs to Durango, over the Million Dollar Highway and then through Montrose ending up in Delta.)
Planned route for Monday the 8th will be Delta to Grand Junction to Fruita (West) up over Douglas Pass (CO highway 139 - a great, very lonely, twisty road!) to Rangely, then East on CO 64 to Meeker, then North on CO 13 to Craig, East on US 40 to Hayden, just past Hayden, SE on County Road 27 to Oak Creek, then South on CO 131 to Toponas, then East on CO 134 over Gore Pass to Kremmling, then East on US 40 through Hot Sulphur Springs, Tabernash and Winter Park, over Berthoud Pass and back to Denver.
Total distance/time for Sunday should be 330 miles/7 hrs and total distance/time for Monday should be 450 miles/9 hrs (not counting break/stop times obviously.)

Possibly. Maybe day 1. Anyone else interested in taking that route into Montrose for day one and coming back from there on Monday? |

Manuel: As usual, I am planning a "long way back" trip. Right now I'm tentatively thinking of taking US 64 to Chama, then 84 to Pagosa Springs, then 160 to Durango and 550 up the Million Dollar Highway through Montrose and ending up in either Delta or Grand Junction, overnighting there on Sunday. Monday I would ride Douglas Pass from Fruita to Rangely, then over to Meeker, up to Craig, and then down through Oak Creek, over Gore Pass and finally through Hot Sulphur Springs and WInter Park, returning to Denver via US 40. Do you want to go that route with me? Anyone else?
