Joliet 0 Posted April 27, 2007 Alex, I will meet you there. I have room on my trailer for an additional bike, if some one wants to ride along. I am in Vista, near where the Carlsbad raceway was. If you and your bike want a ride PM me for directions. It looks like some good riding, can't wait. :i-m_so_happy: If any one has these trails, or other trails in that area in a GPS file I would appreciate you sharing them.

I haven't ridden Hixon since last August and I have only ridden Alessandro 3 times because I am always riding by myself and I feel that this is not a good trail to ride alone on. My TE 450 is not ready for the job due to suspension being too stiff, but my good old KLX 300 is up to task. I'll try to make it. It'll be fun getting to watch other riders navigate this stuff. It is about 55 miles from my place, so I'll try not to oversleep and be there on time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If you guys don't mind another, I'm going to try and make it up there. Black Chevy pickup - going to bring the 450 EXC... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Joliet 0 Posted April 28, 2007 The more the merrier, should be awsome. If you guys have small cameras bring them. Mine is so old it has a tripod and a hood to go over your head when you focus. Ken Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
