  1. Headed up in October. Drink lots of water!
  2. Yes, I believe so. We went up last night. It was beautiful.
  3. Yes. I found it on Youtube last year. Remember where the old rock cabin once stood in Deer Park? (Can't believe they tore it down.) It's in that general area but on the opposite side of the road. It's a tiny, overgrown trail that dead ends at an old, broken down two-track wooden bridge. Shack is just beyond the bridge. Mine nearby.
  4. Love the route. Was the mine in Deer Park? Did you see the tar paper shack?
  5. Thanks Robert. I used that clutch-as-rear-brake technique to chicken out of a drop-off at CC last time I was there. I really needed to keep my right foot down. I think I read about it here.
  6. I have an old bike with a new carb. I have heard that gas additives destroy soft parts, therefore I should run my carb dry when I park it at night. On the other hand, I heard that drying out the carb makes soft parts age prematurely and become brittle. The bike never sits for more than a few days at a time. What should I do? Thanks!

    Found Lost Rider in Mexico

    I gave up camping down there after we were robbed (burglarized) in LA Bay. But I must admit I drool over the ride reports. It seems the kind of riding you guys do in Baja is a lot different (safer) than what this poor victim was doing on the mainland. He was an easier target (living off the bike) in a really bad area. It's just a drag that everyone who lives down there knows that every American down there is unarmed.

    Happy 4th

    Back atcha! I smoked some pork shoulders, had an awesome picnic at the church, now headed to the fireworks. Best country in the world!
  13. Hmmm. What is this "Cameron TT?" Is it east of Buckman? Gotta check it out.
  14. We camped at Corral a couple weeks ago and forgot the pass. Raced to PV and back in the morning for a day pass. Saw the ranger on the way out. We made it back in time, but I think she only checked Bobcat, then left.
  15. My son, Ben, played a solo set at the city concert tonight - did some Chet Atkins and Tommy Emmanuel stuff. He totally killed it. He'll be back there July 31 and August 14. The boys are headed out to Nashville week after next for the Chet Atkins festival. Woohoo.
  16. I hope you guys have a great, safe trip!

    helmet light

    That is really cool. Have you tried the jaw mount? I tried the top mount, but the dust was blinding. Wondered if jaw was any better.
  18. I have a 1994 dirt DR350. I weigh about 215-220 in gear and I ride the bike in rocks and whoops. Could someone guide me (or link me to something) on how I should adjust my hard/soft settings?? Thanks!

    DR350 Suspension Settings

    Yes. Tntmo is correct about my bike. I should stick with my forks and start by trying to find out what springs I have.

    Oh my goodness; that is awesome!

    DR350 Suspension Settings

    Wow Tom, That does sound interesting. The PO claimed that my suspension had been customized for the desert. But I have no idea what I have - and nothing to compare. This is the only "real" bike I've ever had. I probably need someone to ride mine who knows what it should feel like. I do know that my bike sags more than other bikes I have ridden. I can't complain too much about that as my legs are pretty short.

    DR350 Suspension Settings

    I should just have you look at it. I'm wondering of the PO already changed the springs.
