Things might change, but then they always do.

For those paranoid about excessive speed, the altitude will suck that dry.

If you ever go, don't make the mistake I did and chug down Coca Cola at 12500 feet. At that altitude the C02 gas expanded in my stomach quite radically and I had it coming out both ends in spectacular style. Thank god for a good friend to help me out and a portopotty otherwise it would have been quite the crowd pleaser. Or not.


Anyways it is definitely worth going at least once in your life.
I feel bad for saying but that has made my day bwhahaha, just got a bad mental image of some poor ******* showering coke on the mountain top haha

But would love to get to Pike Peak soon, it is on my motorsport events list for the US
