Colorado Peak to Peak Drive? (Mt Evans - Pikes Peak)

I am thinking it would be fun to drive to the top of Mt Evans and then the top of Pikes Peak (or visa-versa) in one day. Would not leave much time for sightseeing on either peak, but its about the drive

Thinking towards the end May.

Anybody up for a drive?

The Lotus people are suggesting the following route:

Pikes Peak
24
67
285
74
103
5
Mt Evans

130 miles

Will be enjoying the sun in Florida end of May, taking my kids to Disney world. Sounds like fun though, wish I could join. Take Ronnie with you so we can get it documented with beautiful pics.

I am sure that the big group will end up being a collection of small groups, probably at the first red light.

This is a public group on public roads. Go at the speed you want, be safe and responsible (yep, legal disclaimer) and we will wave at the top.

I am thinking late May or early June. Any date preferable?

This is being pushed back to late June or late Jule.

With the government budget issues, it does not look like the roads will be open.
