I don't think this has been discussed, but then again TGR search...
I'm going to give this a whirl this year (both as a driver and rider) - https://treadshare.com/. Hopefully it can be reliable, especially if a rider and on the return.
There's also this one - https://www.caravancarpool.com/ - but doesn't seem as active.
I always feel guilty pulling into a lot solo. Maybe one of these gets some real legs and helps some with traffic, parking, cost, climate, etc.
Well there aren't any pics of the semi, I wonder if this was actually a crashed GOTOS with those black containers hooked to it?Quote:

tuesday I thought was gonna be ugly cause they were doing some rock work on g town hill but alas I made it right through around lunch time instead of texting and making phone calls while sitting in traffic as planned i had to do it while driving busines waits for no one
observations
I was the asshole driving like an asshole the other nite sorry i fI cut you off avg about 85 mph until the tunnel area where we slowed to 60 cause a skim of shit was on the road
the cops have a new hidie hole about a mile past the east bound start of the express lane is a nook and suprise
the semi trailer headed east going down mt vernon canyon doing 75 mph weaving unable to stay in their lane was scary as shit I backed the fuck off
left laners WTF? serious wtf?
coming out of the tunnel the other morning and keeping it real around 55 to 60 mph was good in the shit conditions but man it seems that if you have a rental car or a big truck 75 is aok do any of those big trucks have weight in the bed
some
has I-70 travel been smooth as a baby's bottom? remarkably little chatter here now that we're back into winter travel.
no and yes whats the question?Quote:

sat am seemed pretty mellow west bound
Nobody drives I70 anymore, too much traffic.

I've skied around Whale Peak in spring -- some awesome lines back there. But a PITA access wise...wonder if you're allowed to BRAP it up around those parts?
yes there's just never enough snowQuote:

Back to i70, westbound toll lane should help on those dry Saturday mornings.

hopefully mtm took you in for the nite provided you some meatballs and whiskey to take the pain away
It opened and the road was basically dry. CDOT person confirmed that the problem was Eisenhower and CDOT closed everything else just to keep traffic from backing up. When closing VP because of Eisenhower, CSP needs to allow SC residents with snow tires past the closures as they wouldn't be contributing to any backups.
The wonderfully insightful one man’s junk fb group made it sound like silverthorne was a parking lot with EB70 being closed
Friend said it took 3 hours to go from Frisco to Spring Creek
somedays I think I need to be on FB just so I can feel the pulse of summit county I'm sure they make this thread seem pretty tame friends have showed me how they have been publicly shamed on one mans junk its pretty sad and funny at the same time lots of entitlement on there from what I been toldQuote:

^^^ Trailerthorne isn’t a trailer park anymore. Lots going on there, north of I70 and in Dillon.
yea now it is West West West Denver
At least Silver Plume is yet to be discovered. Has good skiing one day every 10 years as well!
So what's the problem? That's a nice drive.Quote:
