The Mile Hi Cobra Club is pleased to announce their first Cruise Colorado event. We are inviting Cobra owners to join us on the great long weekend we have planned for the summer of 2004.
[8D]
The group will be departing Denver on July 21. The first stop is Crested Butte, CO. From there, we head to Durango on the 22nd. With all the great attractions in Durango, we will be staying over on the 23rd. We have a number of recommended outings which include Silverton by train or car. On the 24th we head to Glenwood Springs, CO. A soaking in the hot springs will be appreciated after this relatively long day. On the 25th we head back to Denver through Glenwood Canyon and past Vail or over Independence Pass.
For the entry fee of $30.00 for MHCC members and $35 for non-members you will get a few goodies including a shirt, maps, directions, etc. The entry fee will be used to cover club expenses and all remaining money will be donated to the Colorado State Patrol's widows organization. We are working with various manufacturer's to provide limited sponsorship in exchange for a logo on our shirts.
Our intent is to have a fun weekend of driving and sightseeing. Therefore, we are creating an informal event that will allow small groups to set their own pace and take side-trips without fear of holding up the group. The only official planned event is a dinner on Saturday evening in Glenwood.
We will supply a list of recommended hotels in each town soon and everyone will need to make their own reservations. Dan Melson has volunteered to supply a truck and trailer for a support vehicle. For those that may trailer in to Denver, we have a lot where you can park your trailer and tow vehicle. Cobra ownership is not required but initially we would like to restict participants to Cobra enthusiasts and our club members. If you are coming from the South or West, you may want to join in with us beginning in Gunnison or Durango. As we will be going over some pretty high passes along the way and because you will be starting out at our mile high altitude, those running carbs are strongly urged to re-jet down 2 to 4 jet size numbers.
Final details are being worked out and we will be posting the latest information and registration forms on Milehicobraclub.com
For additional information, please contact me, Gary Patrick, at gary.patrick@milehicobraclub.com or call me at 303-979-4977.
We will be going on this trip whether we have 5 or 50 cars. We'd like to have as many of you as possible join us!
Regards,
Gary
