Are you new to Colorado, or have not ridin in Rampart Range.
There is approximately 150 mile of groomed, marked, and maintained
trails in the Rampart Range area of the Pike National Forest.
Rampart Range is located rougly 30 miles South/West of Denver.

Rampart Range is quoted as the best trail riding in the U.S.

The 13th Annual Fall POKER RUN is happening this Sunday. It is alot of
fun for all, there is a 50-55 mile long course for Experiened riders
and a 20 miles short course for Families and kids. For those not familiar
with Poker Runs, you will ride from checkpoint to checkpoint (total of 7)
and draw 1 card at each. There is Gift Certificates for those with the
best hands of those who have completed the course, and MANY door prizes
donated from many of the local motorcycle shops. I have participated in
this event about 7-8 times, and had a great deal of fun each time.

I DO NOT organize this event, I am just passing on information about it.
