There is a function called Evaluate() that is pretty useful for these tasks:
<cfif isdefined("form.go")>
<cfloop index="loopitem" from="1" to="3">
<cfoutput>
#evaluate("Form.Input#loopitem#")#
</cfoutput>
</cfloop>
</cfif>
Also, if you are using CF 4.5x you can refer to the form fields using the
"Form Structure" and do your sting concatenation at the same time:
<cfif isdefined("form.go")>
<cfloop index="loopitem" from="1" to="3">
<cfoutput>
#Form['input' & loopitem]#
</cfoutput>
</cfloop>
</cfif>
A little more about the "Form Structure":
