Colorado 2008 Trip
08/29/08 - 09/06/08
Fort Worth, Texas - tour Colorado and back
2,920 Miles

This was a great trip and these pages contain 124 photos along with maps of each day's route. Our trip last year was also to Colorado, but we just never tire of riding in that state.

The maps for this trip are different from the previous trips on this site. I used Google maps instead of Microsoft Streets and Trips. This enables you to zoom in or out on the maps so you can see as much detail as you like. If you click on "View Larger Map" it opens Google so you can see the mileage and all the directions for the route. It doesn't open a new window for this, so just press the "back" button on your web browser to return to my pages.

If anyone viewing these pages has any questions or would like to make comments or suggestions, (or have me email the actual gps map files to you) please email myself or Mark at one of the links on the "Contact" page. We hope you enjoy viewing these pages. Just click on "Day 1" below to get started. Each page has navigation links to guide you through each day's map and pictures.
