The 17th Annual 2025 40's Only Run: Sept 6

[Old40Dog]

I'm planning on the 40's only run. Too far to SLC in the 40.

 

[Jcbmx]

So this is still on for September 6 correct? I shortened a trip to do this thing

 

[timmbuck2]

Yes we are on for Sept 6!

 

[procomsignathid]

Any details?

 

[timmbuck2]

Let's find out who all is going!

Chime in here if you are for sure going, I will update the first thread. We will meet up the morning of the 6th, but we need to talk a little amongst the people who will be attending. I try and customize our trail and route to our attendees each year. Sometime we just want a chill country drive and see some pretty colors and stay the heck away from Guanella Pass! And sometimes we have a group that wants something a little more challenging.

Last year we did Argentine Pass and 2 years ago it was the east side of Rollins pass and then apex back to the reservoir near Central City for lunch.

I'm in! EDIT: down for whatever kind of route y'all are thinking.

Count me too. Hopefully we can do a bit longer run since I am trailering my rig in.

Sweeet!!! cannot wait to see all the 40s

Of the people who are definitely going, are you looking for a more relaxed ride? A harder trail? Something in between? Regardless, it will be a fabulous day. I am actually doing a little pre-run this Sunday with my boys, anyone is welcome to come.

On Sept 6, we will meet at the Jeffco Fairgrounds at 9, wheels up at 9:30. Trail TBD after we discuss a little more here.

 

[timmbuck2]

Updated first post with possible attendees. I will post up a couple of trail ideas in a bit, let me know what you are thinking!

Planning on this one, we’ll see.

 

[timmbuck2]

OK I have a couple of ideas.

1 is for a more relaxed and a chill drive in the mountains. We did this 2 years ago and it was a little short but gorgeous and fun. I would extend the run also! Start going up the east side of rollins pass, go check out the train tunnel at the bottom then go back to Apex and follow it back towards blackhawk and have lunch at the reservoir. Then there are a couple of nice side trails that each take an hour or so, the Nevadaville Loop, and Oh My God Road/Russel Gulch. All easy roads.

2 would be what we did last year, Argentine Pass. Pretty easy up top, a little harder down below. Gorgeous lunch spot. And we can always cleanup the trail a little too.

Or...

West side of Rollins Pass? I always see a moose or 2 up there and last time saw a bear!

Webster Pass up to Montezuma, maybe Peru Creek and take Loveland Pass home?

What say you???

 

[procomsignathid]

West side of Rollins or Webster/Peru would be my vote

 

[ChevyKeith]

Going. HJ45. I will be slow if we are on the highway. So I would vote for minimum highway time.
