What is the LATEST recognition your Cobra has had recently?

Last summer, our local club was at going to Aspen CO when we stopped at the top of Independence Pass (elevation 12,095 ft). wife and I do a lot of road biking and the last thing we need is another irate driver on the road.

So far we've ridden over all the major mountain passes in Colorado on our bikes. Now that we have the Cobra it's "wish we were in the Cobra" if we're on the bicycles and "we must have been crazy" if we're in the Cobra.

It takes a lot of cajones to do two things on a bicycle: Give a motorist some B.S. and come down a mountain pass on those skinny little tires at 55+ mph. You think you get the feeling of flying in your Cobra!

BTW Hal, our titanium framed bicycles cost about $4500 each.

I've been to Aspen many times, in fact my youngest daughter was married in Aspen last September at the Aspen Art Museum...
The first time I drove to Aspen, Independence Pass was closed for the season and I was so disappointed. The next trip was earlier in the year and the pass was open.. I was so happy..
THAT WAS THE SCARIEST RIDE I EVER TOOK.... I've never done it again.... Those people in Colorado are nuts... (not you of course)My kids do it all the time and I go crazy when they do...
A few years ago they wanted to widen the pass by about two feet but a group of people protested that it would take away from the historical quality of the pass.. Ten feet wider wouldn't be enough for me... I was talking to a bartender after my first and only trip over the pass and commented that I was surprised that no one goes over the edge of the pass, he said, of course the do.

GIMME A DOUBLE.....


I love Colorado but I'm sticking to the Glenwood Canyon route...
A cathedral of stone...
