Stan returned to Colorado in June 2006 to participate once again in the Ride the Rockies tour with friends Susan, Sharon and Janet. Unfortunately, Kirk and Greg, who Stan met in 2005, could not make it for the tour this year. The six-day, 419 mile (674 km) route took them from native ruins in Grand Mesa, through rich farmland, rivers and mountains in Southern Colorado, then into part of New Mexico. The countryside was absolutely spectacular! For details on the route, see www.ridetherockies.com
