11/7 big bike ride
DirtSurfin replied to Daufcguy's topic in 1 to 3 Day Ride Write-Ups, Stories and Photos
Looks great! I'd be into a noob friendly, easy does it, big bike ride. I ride a 2012 Triumph Scrambler. I feel ok mostly on fire roads to SLIGHTLY more challenging terrain. It's a lot of bike to handle but I'm trying to get better at riding dirt with it. I wonder if this ride would've been something I could handle. Was it steep? Loose? Rocky? Be in touch if you're planning another ride. I just got back from a trip through Tecate out hwy 2 through La Rumorosa and down hwy 5 to Pete's camp returing via hwy 3 to Ensenada then hwy 1 into T.J. to S.D. -

I've reserved a space at Petes Camp November 9th and 10th. Anyone know if or think it'll be crazy there that close to the start of the 1000? Just curious. Thoughts? -
Sat 2/16 big & small bike DS ride Ramona to Anza
DirtSurfin replied to Afry's topic in Informal Local Rides & Who's Going Riding!
Just read TSR's ride report entitled "mountain gates closed" and it made me wonder what kind of temps should we be prepared for this Saturday. My guess is something similar to what those pictures reflect. If that's the case, I'm glad I read that post. It looks like it could be down right cold out there... Will layer accordingly. -

Thanks for the reply. I'll look into the Tom Harrison maps for sure. That looks like some beautiful, magical country, I hope to ride there soon. Paul -

Sunday solo bounce-around
DirtSurfin replied to paulmbowers's topic in 1 to 3 Day Ride Write-Ups, Stories and Photos
Hey Paul, You mentioned Indian Flats in your first post. Do you know anything about the dirt road that shoots up and off to the right as you're entering the gate to the campground? I was out there for my first time last year checking out the campground solo on my Drz and wanted to explore that dirt road but wasn't sure what I'd be in for, like how difficult, how long, and where it comes out? Any info would be appreciated. Thanks, Paul -
noobs at lark
DirtSurfin replied to bikeslut's topic in 1 to 3 Day Ride Write-Ups, Stories and Photos
Thanks a lot for the ride ya'll. Will have to do it again sometime. And I have to ask again what is the level before "noob ride"? That's the one I need to be on... a couple sections on this ride had me all ... -
nother noob ride
DirtSurfin replied to bikeslut's topic in Informal Local Rides & Who's Going Riding!
Bike is loaded, both van and bike are gassed up. I've transcribed the directions and am in for the ride. Will get on the road around 6 in the morning, looking forward to it. Hope to see you all there. Paul -
nother noob ride
DirtSurfin replied to bikeslut's topic in Informal Local Rides & Who's Going Riding!
I do believe I'm in on this ride barring torrential downpours. I hope I can find you all. From the directions it seems like the meet up spot is off of but not on McCain Valley Rd. I'll be driving a white Ford econoline conversion with a white and yellow DR-Z on the back. If anyone sees me on the road gimme a holler. Is there an approximate head count at this point? I'll check back Sat night to make sure everything's still on. See ya, Paul -
nother noob ride
DirtSurfin replied to bikeslut's topic in Informal Local Rides & Who's Going Riding!
I think I'm gonna do this. I've been wanting to ride with you all for a while and was bummed I didn't just get up and go on last weeks ride. I may need more detail on where to meet up, I've never ridden there. I know where the Coral Canyon entrance is but not sure about the rest. Look forward to it. Paul Oh, I see now where it is. Will have to really motivate myself to make this one.
