Sneeker 29 Posted April 7, 2011 How much pavement is usually on this ride? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DigDug 0 Posted April 7, 2011 How much pavement is usually on this ride? Less than 10% of it is pavement, usually. It's a different loop each year however. These guys try to minimize the pavement and it's usually only to connect trails. If you want to attempt any of the hardways, I'd recommend bringing as small and light a bike as you have with a plate.

No Plaque...*(read: should I OR should I not trying for the hard route/plaque..) Since, I've never participated in an event like this before, but have ridden many various terrains (5 years of off road/fire-road/desert type riding---- on the weekends.. -which makes it approx 200 days..

Do you have to commit to one route.. hard/easy at the start?, or can you choose while on track. ... .. I'll find out, eventually. Thanks for any "heads up input".

Dan When you register and get tracks/maps/charts, etc on Friday, you will be able to deternime routes, bail outs etc.... a San Bernardino National Forest Map is a good tool to have up there.....route numbers labeled, etc.... REI has them , or ranger stations up there... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

KTMrad 508 Posted June 23, 2011 I won't make this ride since I just got back a week ago from the High Sierra and the Dual Dogs Seqouia ride. Wanted to mention this......

The Husqvarna display will open at approximately 3pm and signup begins at 6pm. Here's your chance to try out the new Husky's. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
