For those of you will be staying in Denver on Saturday, July 5th, hotels are filling up quickly!
The best rate that I have found on a good place is $89 at the Homewood Suites in Inverness.
This is near I-25 and C-470. I found the price on hotels.com.

Homewood Suites by Hilton Denver Tech Center - Hotels.com - Hotel rooms with reviews. Discounts and Deals on 85,000 hotels worldwide

There are a lot of places to eat at around this area as well. If you have any questions, please send me a PM!

Damn it figures. I just stumbled across this thread. Getting married in October and have very little time left off or we would totally be down. Any of you in Denver that Saturday want to meet up? I would love to see a group of Xfires trolling the streets of Denver0. I live right downtown and I know the scene pretty well.

Thanks Bob, That sounds like a good time. Any chance someone might have a solid Solder Iron I can use? Mine ***** the bed, and this Sounds like an ideal day to pull the ignition pin and re-solder the RCM.

This is awesome news. I am truly Stoked to get to meet some of you chaps, to dicuss, and tinker with our cars.

Hope you boys don't mind helping me double up the solder on the RCM and pull the iginition pin? B/C if not then I will save those chores for the 29th and focus on other items.

All I can say is wow and thank you, for the kind offer to let me join in the festivities. I will start following the CCC Facebook page as well.

Evan, any idea what time that is planned for Friday morning? We had thought about leaving around 10am but can move it back a couple hours or so fairly easily.

2 and a half weeks away!

We will probably do this around 8AM. The downtown section is only about 1/2 mile or so from the hotel.

I'd say expect 90 during the day and down to 50 at night, little or no rain :

There is always a slight chance for a quick afternoon thunderstorm. Keep in mind that we will be going up into higher elevations on some of these runs (upwards of 12,000+ feet). The tops of those passes can be cool (40-50 degrees) and breezy. Be sure to bring a jacket just in case.
