Who's Riding Where???

I'm in Oceanside and we have to drive 80+/- miles each way for Big Laguna/Nobel, Palm Canyon, Idyllwild, a touch further for Big Bear/SART and 100 each way for Mt Wilson....bit none of those are devoid of humans. I suggest possibly driving 13 hours to Durango if you want some peace. I've ridden 5 days and seen less than 10 riders outside our group.

 

The goal is to get home sans lights. Minimal stopping but also minimal uphill pace. I’ll try to make up for lost time on the downswing.

 

Riding where???

A glance at the tea leaves seems to present the possibility of some SoCal riding this year. Hard to beat the Tahoe area, but I can handle a little SoCal. Maybe see ya.

 

Winter Creek loop @ 6:30 am

 

Still closed at the bottom, pedal up the road?

 

Nope

Open on weekdays. I drove up yesterday morning.

 

Already committed to some trailwork.
Next time...

 

I'm gonna do some hill repeats on my neighborhood streets on Friday. Who's in?

 

Wait for me!

 

Bring your single speed. I'll buy your lunch at La Sirena.

Fuel up on Tailwind because I may break 750' of climbing this time!!!!

 

Most likely I will, again, be riding in my garage tomorrow. Just like today.

 

same place, same time, thanks for reminding me, got to plug in the lights. What kinda fool needs lights on the longest days of the year? And the trails got a little wider tonight, one place over 5 feet wider. Way out of bounds on an 18" wide trail, but it was dark so did it really happen? Pucker factor says yes. After that 3 more times but only off a foot or two
Happy dark trails

 

After work today I'm heading up to Big Bear for an overnighter. With the daily road closures on 330/18, I'm thinking of going up 38 and stopping for a quickie Post Office loop in the late afternoon. If anyone wants to join in, PM or text me to coordinate.

 

You guys know the Big Bear circuits pretty well, it looks like. I rode the lift once in the 90s. Have done SART and Wildhorse, but nothing else in the area.

The forecast looks like I'll be there for a couple of months later this year. I'd be stoked to get some epic new dirt with y'all.

 

Any Saturday plans?
I’m itching to ride somewhere fresh and out of ideas.
Thinking of throwing the rear on the Hightower and doing Upper Silver Moccasin/Chilao/Silver Moccasin from Newcombs.
Talk me out of it.

 

Sounds Melache!!

 

Sounds like a good ride. I am in if you don't mind babysitting

 

Is this happening?

 

I don't think it was a real invite. He didn't use the form.

 

Im heading east and going to do a lap or two on the pemberton trail in McDowell regional park.

 

....What? What time? Meeting at Newcombs?

 

Yup! Happening.

Even you are invited.

You guys want to meet at 8:00am?

 

How about Charlton? Get a few more miles of singletrack...

 

Charlton is before Chilao on the left, correct?

 

Dawn patrol I would assume.

 

Yes sir! Makes a good ride great!
Bathrooms are closed.
Water at Chilao fire station
Should be clear but arm/leg coverage is advisable

 

Okay so to be clear... park in front of the locked bathrooms right on Highway 2 at the turn off for Charlton Flats at 8:00 am. Correcto-Mundo?

 

Yes sir!

We should be waiting for you.

 

So is the meeting point is at Charlton Flats at 0800. Just to be sure.
