After Saturday breakfast at the Red Rocks Grill in Morrison, we'll depart at 9am riding East to the "Wonder Tower" in Genoa. You'll find this to be a bit of P.T. Barnum _style_ entertainment. We then proceed North to Brush and the Drovers Restaurant. It's located at the Livestock Exchange so it should be an interesting Lunch. The prices will remind you of the 1950's, and the food is great(and what pies!), so eat a light breakfast. Then taking SR-71 North we are in Minuteman III & Peacekeeper missile country and a stop near one of the active silos. Ride options range from 208 to 364 miles.
The Wonder Tower in Genoa boasts 24 rooms stuffed with stuff.
