Arrived in Montrose, Colorado on Monday on a business trip. My buds had 2 wheels and a set of Handlebars awaiting for me. Yep a Custom HD Fatboy . After work tomorrow, a trip in the Black Canyon in Gunnison National Park. So adding another state to my list.

Today, I spent the day slinging lead with other of my colleagues in the industry, along with SF and LEO's. Tomorrow will be more and Thursday, scaling the cliffs.

Adding bonus is riding with a sidearm on my side and has several comments from people saying they feel safer. Imagine that........................they don't know me all that well, LOL !

You need to do The Garden of the Gods. I went up the rock in the middle of there without any equipment. Don't think I have that kind of nerve anymore. About a 1/2 day climb.

Finally back from Montrose. Been home a few days to re-coop as it was a long exhausting week of work and play. Unfortunately did not get to ride much more after the first day due to getting shot and flying through doors, knocking them off their hinges, LOL !

 

Day 1 was at the range. My work sucks! Shot around 1,000 rounds of pistol and carbine. Sorry, no pics.

 

Day 2 was even funner! We got to shoot one another. Of course using Sim rounds, never the less, they drew blood. I only got shot once in the front jaw. However doing a room clearing, I knocked the door off the hinges, topples the desk that was barricading the door only to land on top of the aggressor, knocking his Mich helmet off his head. My #2 guys lays 19 sims rounds into his side where his armor did not cover.

 

Day 3.......Beautiful!! I play the aggressor this go around. We got to ambush the team and boy did we light them up! How I did what I have done so far amazed myself due to my hips. However the fun set in more than the pain. I managed to hike 2 miles up the side of the Mtn. to the 11,000 ft. elevation level. Yes, a shortage of breath due to do to me living at sea level.

While in town, I ran across this scoot, Electrofied!

It was truly an eventful trip and looking forward to the next one in spring. I cannot show any tactical pics due to security of our SF and SWAT guys whom also attended. Colorado was beautiful to say the least and other pics that I can show Becky, my wife says she's ready for a road trip on the scoot next year rather than flying. Besides, I cannot afford getting the law call on me again at RDU. Continental Airlines lost my weapons case. Almost $8,000 of declared firearms and accessories were lost. To say, I was a little upset to say the least and gave them a concerned scolding. Though upset, I was NOT irate. Needless to say, they called the law on me. 3 Airport coppers came and then called it a since less call on the airline baggage claims personnel's part. I did get my firearms back 36 hours later delivered to my house at 5:30 a.m..
