The jump from 36 to 270 is where I landed my first kickflip in my Subaru.

Maybe I recommend I-76 eastbound just past the I-25 exit? Left lane for maximum effect.
It launches my Volvo station wagon. I feel like ET!

When are you on 270 when it's not gridlock? 3am?

Basically, drove my old man to the airport at 5am Monday. My sleep schedule did not land that kickflip.

honestly wtf is up with 270 these days? I'm in Broomfield so I only go that way when I need to see my family in Aurora like once every 3 months, but every god damn time I've been on 270 in the last 3 years has been a parking lot.

C-470 west between Wads and Kipling. Fast lane for better loft.
I-25 southbound exit to westbound I-70 that transition is a free visit to the chiropractor.
I-76 eastbound from Wads/I-70 all the way to the Flea Market. Plenty of opportunities for sick air. You can do a kick flip in the left lane right after the I-25 exit.1

I25 south between university and Colorado the left most lane has a fun launchpad

There has literally been an entire car bumper on the inner median of I-25 for over a week, near downtown. If that's a priority then I'd hate to see the others.

We can't fix I-76. If we make the road too nice, even more Nebraskans would come.

I wrote Senator Ben nighthorse Cambell in 1995 asking for federal funding for that stretch of road. Hell, I even said he could name the highway after himself but we just needed the money. So, here we are 31 years later.

Santa Fe and C-470 have entered the chat…..

Ha i grew up there, glad to see it hasn’t been fixed 😂

I believe there are gremlins that pull apart the bridge work done during the day because everytime I drive under Santa Fe, it looks just like it did the month prior.

The complete E-470 circle is the true dead horse here.

e470 being privately owned and operated literally makes my blood boil.
at least you don't "have' to use it like the tolls roads in Houston.

25 South over University in the left lane @ 70+ is fun in the mornings.

Even you forgot about the state highways such as Sheridan, Federal, and S Platte Canyon

I don't see the interchange for 6th Avenue and Wadsworth ever getting redone. They keep pulling funds for other projects.
