Colorado B.S. Thread

L1 in Loveland. Tim and Greg are good to deal with

 

Appreciate it!

 

I used US Auto right across the street. Good ol boys. Make sure they know what the Abs strip is (if you care about it).

 

Abs as in Anti lock brake system?
I dont have ABS so that's no problem for me
I'll call them too. The quicker is winner

 

Anybody know a guy who can pair OEM TPMS sensors to my 2015? Dealer wants crazy money just to pair. TIA

 

You don't need tpms

 

Discount Tire did mine (no cost) when I replaced tires and brought new TPMS (2 were "dead")

 

Had a cool three day weekend up in your neck of the woods. Drove up from Albuquerque to spend a few days off-roading and camping. Drove ~150 miles of dirt over two days.



Most of it was easy. A lot of it was scenic. Some of it was sloppy muddy mess.

Hayden Pass in the Sangre de Cristos, mild and pretty.


A little loop south of Salida Sand creek and Badger creek. Bland. Do no recommend.

Aspen Ridge loop from Salida to Buena Vista. Camped just above Salida. Cool view and I could just make out the live music from whatever festival was playing.Went up dead horse gulch. Challenging enough to be fun. Plus I accidentally started down one of the million bike trails and my back tire slid off the trail and I had to use my winch for the first time.
Dumbass.




Tin Cup pass was super scenic, rocky, and sloppy muddy in places. Followed a stock 4Runner up. Buy a damn compressor! Watching their heads bounce around, I felt sorry for them. Maybe 18” deep water at Mirror lake.





Napoleon Pass. That was a doozy. Saw no other people. The trail is rated hard as is. It was so sloppy muddy, big slippery rocks, muddy messy dug out spots, big tree roots. I had to keep using the rear diff locker. Even the top, a slightly steep two track… I almost slid off. Sketchy solo. Multiple 15-20” deep creek crossings. But pretty fun. Plus I sliced a side wall and waited out a brief rain storm to swap tires.



Then essentially followed the CO backcountry discovery route from Pitkin to Lake City. All of it was easy. But quite scenic. Elks, deer, antelopes, marmots. It was fun. This fall I may try to take a few days and run the full COBDR

 

Yo!

You didn't say hi and get the local beta...

FIBArk
Salida Mountain Trails You were driving on CR173 which is a double track that is part of the BLM and Forest Service multiuser trail network, you were not driving on any singletrack bicycle trails.

 

With OEM sensors?

 

if you know the IDs I can with my laptop and Techstream.

 

Which IDs? Sensor isn’t in the wheel yet so now is the time to take pics

 

The ID on the sensor

 

Looking at the map, the intersection where the dude abides takes off is where I headed up maybe that little spur? Whatever it was was narrow and I didn’t turn wide enough and back tire slid off. When I winched myself up and turned around I then saw the sign that said CR that way. Which wasn’t the way I went.

I’ve been in the valley a number of times, but never Salida. I liked it so well that I want to explore it a bit more. So my wife and I are planning to head up there for the 4th weekend. Explore the town itself and buena vista and probably run some sort of loop like tin cup/Hancock and antero. So if you want to meet for a beer or go off-roading I’m game.

 

Ooof!
Looking forward to Wednesday’s game.

 

Doing my civil duty
Jury duty in Denver ughhhhhh!!
Id rather be at work

 

I never get out early either, always send the day sitting there

 

You went up the lower section of Pauli Trail. That makes sense!

 

Last summer I got the jury duty letter for a Monday, set myself a reminder to check if my number was pulled, but set it for Monday not Sunday. I missed getting called by 1 number haha

 

Lol
Lucky!!!
