It's always a popular stop for bikers. There were quite a few out today.

After sitting in the shade, and having a chat for awhile, Lee split off to head back home.
Larry and I continued on towards Woodland Park, and then on to Rudy's BBQ.
I had some Brisket, Jalapeño Sausage, and some Green Chili Stew.

Throughout the day, we got quite a few compliments on the FJs, and wherever we stopped people were interested.
We headed home through Monument, and Palmer Lake via the (105)
It was a great day of riding, although there was quite a bit of traffic.
We'll do it again soon. :good2:
A few more pictures from Larry
