Cortez CO Rally, 2018

[F6Bster]

I'll be picking up Route 160 Wednesday via Walensburg after leaving Raton (where I'll be staying overnight Tues).

Looks great on the map.

As F6Dave posted earlier. After you cross Raton Pass and drop down into Trinidad, Head west on CO-12 (Hwy of Legends). Great ride through Stonewall and then up over Cuchara Pass to LaVeta to US-160 West. It is very nice!!!!

Thanks for the info Dave. I'll be making that CO-12 west adjustment on my trip from Raton.

I'm doing the Hiway of Legends (12) from Trinidad myself, then Charma, up to South Fork, Creede, Lake City, Gunnison area with an out and back on 92 before heading down on the million Dollar Hiway to Cortez. Hope to be in Trinidad by Monday afternoon to have time to do that northern loop..

Can't wait to feel some of those less than 70 deg temps.

I am going to be in Cortez Monday afternoon and plan on riding Co-149 (Creede, Lake City etc) on Tuesday. I plan on an early start and will probably be fueling at the Conoco in South Fork between 9:30 and 10:00 AM if you want to try and hook up. I may have another bike with me.

See you next week

That would be great. I will set my plans on South Fork for 9:30. Plenty of things to make that not happen but something to aim for. Mike 850-748-3748

You guys will have fun for sure!!! AZ has ridden it so he knows what a great ride it is. Be sure to stop and look at North Clear Creek Falls on the right about 1/4-1/2 mile after you crest the ridge after the pulloff for the overlook of the Rio Grande headwaters on the left.

2wheels. Sounds like you are going to ride Cumbres and LaManga Passes from Antonito to Chama. That is a GREAT ride also!!!! Few more hills than the Pensacola area!!!!

Yes both, thinking they will be much better than the pictures on Google Street View, those have too much snow ruining the view.
