      This is Exactly why the area inside Anza Borrego Desert State Park is so exceptional. The two track in the park is 3 times better than the beat up stuff outside. I am holding back my thoughts.  Go live in Arizona if you want to ride Arizona Trails. 

           :o :huh: :lol:     Bagstr

       As a point of information:  We ride from the Borrego Dump area up Inspiration Wash. The area outside the ABDSP, guys ride wherever and trash the place. The scenic inspiration is gone.  Transport yourself past the " Signs " and it is a different world.. There is a space inside the park at the boundary where guys can't control their behavior, cutting new trails etc. Pisses me off. 

    Haywood,  I am Not saying your crew would tear the place up. It is just the reference to the good old days. If we rode the Park like the good old days, it would be trash. 

    I hear ya. My 'crew' and I are all mature gentlemen (old farts) who know how to stay on roads and trails and respect our surroundings. I know not everybody acts the same way.

    Once you go beyond that sign its no Bueno. I believe it part of the Anza Borrego state park but the east side of the highway is okay though up to about the border checkpoint.

     

    That's what I thought. Bummer.

    CA is not the same state I moved to 31 years ago. :(

    Yeah, I have a plated dual sport bike, but the old YZ is just so much fun.

    We had quads in our group riding around there. You could ...check a map, but I think you are OK.

     

    Thanks. 

    I was out there over the holidays cruising through the area in a four wheel drive. I remember seeing a sign along the tracks, not too far from the water tower. I did not get a picture and I can't remember what it said.

    Is it legal to ride green sticker dirt bikes in the desert just north and west of the wind mill farms in Ocotillo. Specifically, up around Dos Cabezas road, the railroad tracks, the water tower? That area and maybe the east side of the highway.

    Thank you!

    I saw all that too about a week ago.  There was a big pile of the metal poles not too far up from the bottom. Several of them looked like they were already welded up to be gates. Hopefully they don't make it a locked gate situation like it is on the other side by the power plant.

    I have seen a lot of four wheelers grinding up those side trails. Let's hope that does not get the entire mountain closed for all of us.

    (Nice SE Bp)

    No hijack, I couldn't rally myself this morning to make Roasty's ride. Gate on the the right is usually wide open or unlocked. 

    Locked up solid today. :-(  

    The one on the left fork I have not seen before, but it has been some time since I have been down that road.

    We just came back up over Otay. Roasty was running short on time and it was getting hot out there.

    Thanks for the report.

    Roasty and I tried to make it out to Barret today. We started at Pio Pico, up and over Otay mountain, then down toward Marron Valley road, going right where you come to the T intersection, instead of left which takes you past the rod and gun club out to 94. So, at the fork in the road we went to the left. About half way down to the valley we hit a locked gate. We turned around and went back and took the right fork. Again, half way down, locked gate. WTF? Needless to say we didn't make it to Barret.

    Sorry for the hijack.

    I am familiar with the area. If it is going to be up and over Otay mountain and then over the mountain on the truck trail that drops you onto highway 94 just east of the Barret café, I know the road.

    I have not been through there for about six months. There may be a gate and/or fence at the bottom of the trail where it meets 94. In the past there was always room to get around it, not sure about now. Has anyone been through there recently?

    Worse case, we can't get through/around the gate and we have to come back over the hill, no problem. Just start with full gas tanks and we should be fine.
