    Today must be one of the luckiest days of my life, my girlfriend and I have been planning to visit Mt. Evans and finally did today. As we are pulling into the first visitor center I can't believe my eyes. Not 5min later I have my GoPro on and following the group up the mountain.

    I will post the video later but I also got a ton of photos (with the help of my girlfriend for most of the driving ones). Here are a few I will most some more soon.

    Still can't believe my luck.

    I must have caught some of the folks coming down off of the mountain in Bergen Park..spotted a 328 GTS trailed by a 430 Spider ...and caught a 348 on I-70 headed to Denver. Unfortunately I was in my Turbo PCar and not the Mondial....Well at least the PCar is red.. ;-)

    Different group, we did not have a 430 or 348 on our drive. Lots of cars out yesterday, the weather was just too nice not to got out. Great event and great people yesterday, thanks to those that organized it and great to see everyone again.

    Probably so, it was about 2:30 or so...the 430 was an unusual color, Rubino Red I am guessing and by the time I saw the 348, it could have come down from farther west...

    Yep, that was real. That was me and a buddy. I remember you, I saw you in the red Turbo, gorgeous car of yours. 328 GTS (me) and that was in fact a 360 spider (in the metallic burgundy color), we were heading home to Boulder.

    Here is the full drive video (38min) - Ferrari club driving up Mount Evans - YouTube

    I am working on a cut down version but for now I would just suggest jumping around. Sorry for the poor quality I put the gopro on real fast and it is a little bouncy.

    Oh yeah, I think I remember seeing you taking shots. It was a good drive and a good day. Mostly pretty tame driving with a few quick sections on Squaw Pass Road. We definitely need to do another drive. There are so many good roads in this state.

    Ahh...I first noticed the two of you off to my left at the intersection in Bergen Park and saw your buddies Fcar from the front and assumed it was a 430. Was paying more attention to your great looking GTS. ;-)
