No Shift 0 Posted July 6, 2007 Are people starting at Carguys or Valeros ? how do I get there? I also want to make sure that I don't hold anyone up in that heat, so if this ride is over my head let me know because you might be baking while wating for me, makeing YOU the BBQ. And that would suck. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
2Wheels 0 Posted July 6, 2007 Are people starting at Carguys or Valeros ? how do I get there? I am going straight to the Valero Gas Station at Carrizo Gorge Rd & Interstate 8. To get to the Valero from Campo: 1. Go East on CAMPO RD / CA-94 ---------------- 14.1 miles 2. Stay STRAIGHT to go onto OLD HWY 80 ------- 9.7 miles 3. Turn LEFT onto CARRIZO GORGE RD ----------- 2.5 miles 4. End at Carrizo Gorge Rd & I 8 I also want to make sure that I don't hold anyone up in that heat, so if this ride is over my head let me know because you might be baking while wating for me, makeing YOU the BBQ. And that would suck. The north branch of this road is the only one I've been on. It's a little more difficult than Thing Valley Road, but there are steep drop offs in some places. It's rocky and there are some small (8 inch or so) steps in some places. Your bike will be bouncing as the wheels go over the rocks. Don't worry about slowing down the group. I don't think anyone's going to be riding really fast. If you have the enthusiasm to give it a try, I'm happy to have you along. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PastaPilot 17 Posted July 6, 2007 Given the early start time and the new meeting spot further East, I am going to bow out of this ride and say see ya at Camp Carguy. I have a late night on Friday and morning will come too early for me to meet the group in Jucumba. Cheers, Jon Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Levvy 0 Posted July 6, 2007 NoShift and Dirt Dame - I just PM'ed you guys. I plan on riding down from north county that morning and dropping gear at Carguy's around 7 or 7:15 before heading out to the ride. If you guys want to meet up somewhere and ride down together, let me know. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ken He's probably THE MOST philanthropic member of this club Once a month or so, he picks a fellow member upon whom he bestows a little, shall we say, gift! I have no idea of his selection process, I'm just glad to be the recipient for this period . I WOULD recommend to those that would like to be "in the running", that you ride an orange bike, smile a lot, and tell him constantly that you think he is the "Wheelie King" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mrorange 0 Posted July 7, 2007 Yes very hot . . . Bring lotsa water/gatoraid for sure!Second, Jacumba to Mountain Springs and back isn't that long of a ride. It's about 10 to 15 miles round trip and I think it'll take about an hour including stops for photos and admiring the scenery. If we start at 9:00 and make the round trip in an hour, it'll be BBQ start time for anyone who wants to bail and go straight to Carguy's. So it sounds like your only doing the old stage road over to the freeway by Mountain Springs starting at the Valero? For an extra photo op I know an old road that leads into the nudist campgrounds from the back. I might still be able to find it. Is it to late to join in at 8:00 am? I'm thinking of taking the truck to Valero and start the ride from there if I can get some help loading my bike back into the truck after the ride. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

After riding to Mountain Springs and back I was going to explore the roads behind the nudist camp if I still have enough water and if anyone else wants to keep riding. No problem helping load the bike back into the truck. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
