Robert, I saw that. I am definitely toying with the idea but I am trying to be cheap! I may end up going that route though. I haven't ridden that area and conditions should be great. Are you trucking across the border or riding?

Check this out. MTB race at Corral Canyon in March. Including Ranger.. http://www.quickndirtymtb.com/sagebrush_safari.html I'm a mountain biker and I'm not sure how I feel about it...But it would be a "real" MTB race which SD is severely lacking in. Either way there may be some MTBers preriding out there soon, so keep an eye out.

Anyone want to ride Friday? I have the day off and I am looking to take advantage of it. We might even get rained on! I don't really care where, just looking to ride. Green sticker.

Racer, this is going to be a small bike single track ride at PV/Corral. Although I have seen bikeslut ride a KLR out there so it can be done but that dude has a screw (s) loose.

Let's shoot for next week.

I don't think anything sensational has ever been expected of you. I am going to try make this. Should be good...

Randy, there are a few walk up only sites on Long Key that are great. No water or electricity but much cheaper and better than the other spots in the area. You basically camp on a paddock about a foot off the sand with a canopy over you. If you need a spot on your way back up check it out. Ask for the walk up spots at the gate. Also, this. I used to camp off the bike in all sorts of weird places in the keys. https://www.notaguidebook.com/how-to-free-camping-in-the-florida-keys

Has anyone used or able to reccomend a Vet in Mexico? My dog is currently in a local animal hospital with an absess in his prostate. He is in pretty rough shape. We were quoted $7k for the reccomended surgery, plus the $2k in fees it has taken to get to this point. Really struggling to figure out a solution. Principally I am against spending $7K on a dog. Emotionally is a different story. If anyone has any insight I would love to hear it.

Thanks Greg. I will look into it. I have read good things about costs and services for vets in Mexico. But I don't know anyone with first hand experience. There are many things I do differently for my dog than I do for myself. But, if I was without insurance, facing an expensive surgery I would definitely consider getting surgery in Mexico as an option.

Jealous! Good to see her in her natural environment. Let's see a ride report!

That's my bike! Will, I wouldn't take the bike to Baja. There are a couple things I didn't tell you about it... I didn't know you we're an SDAR member. JK! WIsh I could join you guys. You are going to have a great time.

I'll be up there tomorrow as well. I may only be able to race one day but trying to shun my responsibilities for Sunday as well. Wish me luck!

I thought this was a pretty neat tool put out by the AMA. Obviously doesnt show the whole picture but informative none the less. https://cqrcengage.com/amacycle/CA

Loop 3 looks awesome. I was pretty beat after the first 2 loops but I would have liked to have been able try that 3rd loop. On another note I happen to line up next to Don. The Legends class (70+ years old) #1 plate holder. He started racing at 65 and now he is 80 years old and still getting after it!

Omw!

I am working on getting a hall pass on this one. It will be a last minute decision. I will have to leave early Sunday morning as I definitely cant go up tonight.

Wcgiv, myself and another friend of ours went camping and riding in Big Bear last weekend. We camped at Green Lake, which was a great place to stage out of if your plated. It was the first time I had been up there with a plate so it was nice to be able to do some exploring. We rode more fire roads than usual, but we able to ride some really fun stuff that was non-ohv. We lost our friend 15 minutes into the trip. He crashed on some powder covered boulders, went otb, and sprained his wrist. Wcgiv had to ride his bike out of the rocky sections. We got him back to the road and he went back to the campsite. John Bull Trail Lookout WCJarvis making it look easy on 3N93

Hmmm...do you need a plate?

Forever! I'm never leaving SD county again. It's a hell hole out there! I am supposed to go ride Superstition on Saturday but it may fall through in which case we could do a dual sport ride. If you don't mind waiting for me as I'd be riding my old lady's XT225...

Anyone looking to ride tomorrow? I was thinking about heading to either of these places but I'm up for suggestions too.

Sounds good. Meet me at McCain I know a shortcut.

Looking to ride tomorrow. Any other mid-weekers out there? Same as last week - First choice would be a Big Bear, starting low and riding high...would also be open for Corral or Mccain.

Anyone able to ride Wednesday 9/24? Thinking about Mccain or Corral
