A couple weeks ago there was a sign on the gate saying Closed by order of BLM due to recent fire. However, there was a sign on the back side of the gate basically saying if you're stuck on this side of the gate go get the code from the Pio Pico Ranger.

Here's a decent Anza Borrego map https://www.boondockersbible.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/anza-borrego-desert-state-park-map-2016.pdf

The problem isn't the gate at Sunrise Hwy, it's the closed gate about a mile up from where Deer Park turns into Indian Potrero.

I was out there earlier today. The gate off Pine Creek Rd is still open with a sign stating "No outlet, locked gate ahead, 3 miles". I rode to the closed gate, but decided to not go around it. No sense risking an encounter with a ranger and jeopardizing a newly re-opened area. For a short out and back, you can stay on Deer Park Rd instead of veering right onto Indian Potrero Rd. it is rutted and overgrown, but fun. It still dead ends at a locked private property gate. For whatever reason, the gate for the Pine Valley Creek out and back road is locked.

The gates are open! I did Black Mountain and Santa Ysabel Truck trails today with a few Jeeps. I don't know why the gates have been closed, but it wasn't for maintenance. The trails are rocky, rutted and fun. @Pokey151 when's a good time to have a 2'fer Tuesday? This coming Tuesday doesn't work for me, but maybe the following week?

Yeah, but that's 10W50, which is even cheaper on ebay https://www.ebay.com/itm/363595078702?epid=4026687730&itmmeta=01J2WXVWRDB1MAWMBBQ2HDY2JW&hash=item54a7f49c2e:g:qEsAAOSwPBpkDGBL

I use it in different weights in different bikes. I've found it's cheaper to buy it in the 4L jug. The seller Partscontainer on ebay usually has the best price. https://www.ebay.com/itm/154494116510?epid=2299376275&itmmeta=01J2PW28MDVTQQHDW59G5D7FY3&hash=item23f891229e:g:1NIAAOSw3elkDGIE&itmprp=enc%3AAQAJAAAA4KaYxgF6dWdZBYpLrqDhLg%2Fol5B1kkBjvADzQumLprcDkmA3QQnC9gWunbq%2FkGQm6Be%2BIql8S%2FQGomznL6sSd%2FAxfeqSiStLYZ1JQJDtdBuNqZNl1g9aEVWHFu63ESsHvcQzGwhDNyGtU5II7La%2Fgv3I2b4nFhouy6l2PSxubaPsCqq1l%2FB%2Fcc9VHCqRYeiGmQN7grhZxo%2B7FzM%2FNVDXFdTREbt6YRA5kND5MczaAZ7AlXKsrRYLKDbgrX8LEyZfK2rX9nXArZ198lSZr5HlXMyzJ%2BJZ5sMofQo3zhzSNgc7|tkp%3ABFBMpIqJ3JVk

Palomar Divide or Otay Mtn/Sycamore Canyon/Pink gate area. Still hot, but not as hot as McCain etc.

Maybe try running it around the block with no air filter and see if that makes a difference?

Good times yesterday. It was good riding with you all again. I'd be interested in a mid week ride. Afternoons would work best for me or anytime on Thursday. @Pokey151has been threatening a 2'fer Tuesday...

I'm in. See you at the gas station.

I'd enjoy a "humorous meme" section.

I'll be there. It was a good time last year.
