1st Annual RMVTA Memorial Ride       Captain: Floyd Thorne Phone: 303-452-6897       Date: June 28 Saturday       Meet: 10:45 a.m @ I-70 & Kipling Boulevard Park & Ride       Ride leaves @ 11:00 a.m., eat & fuel before meeting This will be the first of many Memorial Rides to follow - hopefully. The purpose of this ride is to remember our fallen members. Since it has not been determined if we "ride to eat" or "eat to ride", I thought that a ride activity that included both riding and eating would be appropriate . . We will make our way to the Sylvan Dale Guest Ranch in Loveland. Once there, we will relax for a bit until we can mount horses and do a trail ride off someplace and have a Steak Dinner Ride. Later, we will return about dusk and make our way back to Denver on I-25, hopefully before it gets totally dark (a concern for some of our riders). The estimated time for returning to Denver is 9 p.m. The fee for the activity will be approximately $48.00 per person. They will also have 4x4 access for those that choose not to ride horseback or who might have physical limitations that might prohibit them from riding. We will need to collect monies and pay a deposit as the time approaches. There will be more details in the June newsletter.     Route     I-70 west to Hwy 58  2 mi.    Hwy 58 west to Golden 5 mi.   Washington Ave northwest to Hwy 93 0 mi.   Hwy 93 north to Hwy 46 1 mi.   Hwy 46 west through Golden Gate Canyon 17 mi.   Hwy 119 north to Nederland 13 mi.   Hwy 72 north to Hwy 7 21 mi.   Hwy 7 northwest to Lyons 15 mi.   Hwy 36 northwest to Estes Park 20 mi.   Hwy 34 east to ranch entrance 23 mi.   Watch for the "Dam Store", which is the first building on your left after coming out of the canyon.
