Rescheduled! “Nearly Normal” Spring Drive
Sat, Mar 26
|Longmont Walmart
Definitely a go for this Saturday, 3/26! Covid is waning, the temperature is warming, and we're ready for a drive! So let’s enjoy a short drive from Longmont, up to Peak to Peak Hiway, then down to Boulder for a lunch/beer at Avery Brewing and a visit to the Shelby American Museum.
Time & Location
Mar 26, 2022, 10:00 AM – 2:00 PM
Longmont Walmart, 2514 Main St, Longmont, CO 80504, USA
About the Event
Let's try again! Ward doesn't have a foot of snow and the roads are dry. So we’ll meet in the usual North Longmont Walmart (Main St.) parking lot (on the south side of the lot). We’ll have intros and a drivers’ meeting at 9:45 and leave promptly at 10:00. There are no public restrooms until lunch, so take care of that!
Unfortunately, CDOT has closed CO-7 from Lyons to CO-72. So we’ll be creative (see map) and take Left Hand Canyon and Overland Road up to CO-72, then go down thru Ward to north Boulder via Lee Hill Drive. It’s a different route with plenty of twists and turns. Be warned that there are about 3 miles of dirt road. It’s a good road, but may be muddy with snow melt. So you might want to resist the peer pressure to wash your car before the drive.
We should arrive…
