While I missed this ride (rats!) I can certainly vouch for Peter and Amy's hospitality (and the friendliness of Maggie - didn't meet Fritz).

Here's hoping the next CR Colorado ride is better attended (I promise to endeavor to make an attempt at coming to the next one. ;^) ) I know there's several CR members in Colorado - let's make a strong showing the next time - sort of a CR Rally if you will - I'll bring a sixpack for the the post ride carbo refill.

Cheers,

John Price Denver, CO

Although the turnout was low morale was high as we all met up at listmember Peter Bridge's house where he and his wife Amy, and the dogs Maggie and "Fritz" treated James and I like old friends.

Peter showed off his collection that consisted of a well riden Eisentraut, an Alan made Guerciotti, a Merlin Titanium, and a very pretty Motobecane Grand Record that he rode. James was on his Trek and I rode my Holdsworth fixed gear.

It was nice and cool when we started and made our way through Brighton and up to Fort Lupton before heading back for roughly 50 miles. The pace was leisurely to brisk when Peter would step on the gas as James and I hung on for dear life:) Peter is stealthy!

Back at Peter's we cooled down and he even offered to feed us... He also showed off a cool collection of pictures featuring Bartali and Coppi, Smiling George Mount and Greg Lemond among others.

It is always fun getting together with others who share our passion for lugs

and steel and the site of these beauties all being ridden together is a joy.

Hope some of you other guys can make it next time! A special thanks to Peter

and Amy for being such great hosts.
