I know a lot of people do, and I have been asked several times if the maps on the Passes and Canyons site are available in GPS. Up till now I&#8217;ve had to say no.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.motorcyclecolorado.com\/images\/CliftonToDurango.gif\" align=\"right\" hspace=\"10\" alt=\"map of an area in Colorado\" \/>Well, the answer now is &#8220;Yes.&#8221; Thanks go to Gord Ripley, who has been using the site to plan his Colorado trip. He plotted the routes for the rides I&#8217;ve highlighted on the site and then sent me his GPS file. You can <a href=\"http:\/\/www.motorcyclecolorado.com\/BlogPix\/Colorado 2010.GPX\">download it here<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Now, it won&#8217;t look like this map here; I just put that up for illustration purposes. Fact is, I can&#8217;t really say what it will look like because I don&#8217;t do GPS. But I suspect that for those of you who do, you know all about it so I&#8217;m not going to worry about it.<\/p>\n<p>I really want to thank Gord for this. I have always welcomed any efforts you folks out there make to make this a better site for everyone using it. And I&#8217;ll take this opportunity to put in a plug for riding stories. If you make a trip to Colorado and have a great time, send me an email telling me about it and I&#8217;ll post it on the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.motorcyclecolorado.com\/riding_stories.htm\" target=\"_blank\">Riding Stories<\/a> page. And if you&#8217;ll tell me about the places you stayed, good, bad, or indifferent, I&#8217;ll put that info up on the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.motorcyclecolorado.com\/motels_and_hotels.htm\" target=\"_blank\">Motels and Hotels<\/a> page. That way other people can benefit from your experience.<\/p>\n<p>Thanks.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Recent from National Motorcycle Examiner<\/strong><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.examiner.com\/x-378-Motorcycle-Examiner~y2010m3d14-MotoAdventureGal-update-To-the-Darien-Gap-then-the-hop-to-Colombia\" target=\"_blank\">MotoAdventureGal update: To the Darien Gap, then the hop to Colombia<\/a><\/p>\n<h3>Biker Quote for Today<\/h3>\n<p>Be a biker&#8211;kick start your day.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I know I&#8217;m a bit behind the times but I still don&#8217;t have a GPS unit.
