Colorado B.S. Thread

You told me it was just a cold sore

 

Colorado Springs and Fort Collins are 130 miles apart... are you really open to that much area?

The Crags trail and Raspberry Mountain trail near Divide are two of my local (to Colorado Springs) favorites They're somewhat high-traffic, but not obnoxiously so... I usually pass 10-20 people on either trail. The Crags Campground looks nice, but it's first-come and probably fills up quick every weekend.

 

Break out the lattes and lawn chairs

 

We are open to that much area. From where we are at it doesn't make a lot of difference in the drive

 

Sorry man, not familiar with CS but some counties/ cities have "kids" ponds where they stock stuff constantly so as to make it good for kids.

Buddy just told me about this https://coloradofishing.net/KidFishing.htm

Mentioned at that website https://cpw.state.co.us/kidsfishing

 

I'm willing to drive if you have recommendations.

Sorry added these after I posted it originally.

 

You're awesome man! I just googled one and I didn't see the previous recommendations so disregard last comment

 

Nothing beats taking kids fishing.

 

In town check out Prospect Lake or Quail Lake - they usually stock those. There is also a small pond in Manitou next to the aquatic center that I heard they stock and its supposed to be a kids-only fishing pond, you might call them and inquire. You could also drive up the Pikes Peak Highway to North Catamount and South Catamount Reservoirs for fishing and great views (small entry fee).

 

Thanks boss!

 

Anyone know of a shop where I could get some sandblasting done? Longmont area. I have a steel bike (frame and fork) that I want to repaint. Sandblasting rather than stripping it by hand would make this project 100x easier.

 

Check with Premium Powder Coating. They're in Longmont

"Restaurant Recovery" episode that features My Brother's Bar is scheduled to air at 6:30 p.m. Tuesday on the Cooking Channel.

Haven't been there in ages, but might be interesting since it's like the oldest bar in CO.

 

I called them before to sandblast a frame. Basically they said it wasn't worth their time unless they also did the paint/powdercoating (plus a clearcoat) for about $500.
If you call and get a quote for just blasting, let me know!

 

I used to take bicycle frames to local headstone and monument companies. They all do most of their work with sandblasting and don't have work every day, so they'll mess with something as small as a frame.

 

So I just spoke with them and they quoted $200 for just sandblasting. I was kind of hoping to be around $75-100 if I'm honest, so I told them no thanks. Totally understand their position, I just know I can strip it by hand with chemicals for $30 and destroy some more of my brain cells.
