What a great weekend. Good people, bikes, campfires and whiskey. I really enjoyed the route too. There’s just something about great beer, a salad, smoked gruyere and Italian sausages cooked over the fire with riding buddies passing a whiskey bottle.

It was my first trip into dirt and sand with Anakee  3’s, I really should have run the Heidenaus for the steep loose rock and sand. But I actually learned a bit about floating a thousand pounds of man and machine through the fluff on slicks. It was just deep enough that you could hop off and not need a kickstand. 

It was great to see JaJa’s kit in action. He appears to be the master of bike and gear gadgets and gizmos without going overboard  

Brian, Roy, Jim, JaJa, Dan - thank you guys for a great long weekend!

Note: I get 39mpg ever day all day long. When we gassed up Sunday morning I had 81.9 miles on the clock. Jim confirmed he had 81. She only took 1.42 gals to fill. (Drum roll please) : 57.7mpg!

To this incredible accomplishment I credit DanRider. Thanks buddy for bringing your amazing KLR that tops out around 39 miles per hour!  Keep your garage locked because I’m thinking about sneaking over tonight and swapping your two sprockets around!

Just kidding Dan. The pace was perfect for the scenery we rode through. It’s also cool to know if I had to I could get up to 313 miles out of a tank under ideal conditions. 

Until next time...

There’s a lever on the left down by your foot. If you pull up on it you can go faster.

The ride was fun, we went from cold to a nice night of camping, the ride was full of adventure!  In Idyllwild I think the Moon and the Coyotes singing at night was cool!     JAJA thanks for putting the ride together from Iydllwild to Big Bear,  the trail to the top of Big Bear was awesome!  The Burger place in Big Bear was the Bomb!   I really enjoyed the pirate camp out in Johnson Valley, the spot was a changeling to get to but well worth the effort.  That night could of gone on for ever, the moon coming over the mountains was sensational while sitting by the camp fire.  Then Pioneer Town was a cool place, never been there before.  As always going through Joshua Tree and Box Canyon is spectacular (Jim needs to spend a whole week with his camera there).  Brian thank you for taking us to that great Taco joint in, Mecca best Burro I have had in a long time.  You guys where a blast to hang with for a weekend.   

A special thanks to Jim and Kelly hanging out at my tent Saturday night drinking  soda pop with me! Right!

Great ride! lets do another soon!

I will let Jim post pictures because as everyone knows he does take the best pics!
