Motorcycle Tour in the Rockies

Anyone know of one? I've been googling around but someone with some personal experience would be nice. I'd like to go next summer.
US or Canada. I'm looking for a tour with a guide as I don't want to be drive by myself.

What are you Googling? I tried "guided motorcycle tours colorado" and rockymountainmotorcycletours.com came right up.

Yes I saw them. I was just wondering if anyone had any personal experience. My thought was anyone can throw up a website. A personal reference goes a long way.
Thanks for the reply.

The Colorado Rockies have many gravel backroads that are favorites for Jeep drivers and mountain bicyclists. There are Jeep tours out of Crested Butte and Poncha Springs. You could rent a motorbike/lightweight motorcycle and tour the backroads on your own. There are many old mining towns/ghost towns with one or two families still living there.

You will probably get personal recommendations if you post your question on this forum. The Adventure Riders site is a fast moving forum with lots of well-travelled and helpful motorcycle riders.

Thanks for those replies. It never occurred to me to post on a motorcycle forum. Maybe because I spend all my time on the tt.

Thanks again.
