Mr Moto 0 Posted August 7, 2012 Great Ride Chris! The route was fun and scenic- Riding through the trees for half an hour and then into a meadow then into something new again in the next 15 minutes. The terrain varied so much... It was epic and plan to do it again next year. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bacchussd 0 Posted August 7, 2012 Great pics! We were up there this weekend too- did Laurel Lakes and the killer single track between Mammoth and June. We also saw the Crawdaddy truck pass us on 395!1 Killer riding- good fishing- until we got chased out of our fishing spot below Lake Mary by a massive Black Bear Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

stomp944 0 Posted August 8, 2012 Yes, the three B's didn't disappoint - nor did the one C-diddy. Great weekend with perfect conditions on Sun following a late night pouring of rain. Nice mix of terrain and sights, challenge and distance. Good group. And I even managed to make it back in time for the craft beer tasting this year! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Crash_Man 0 Posted August 22, 2012 Just wanted to say I had a great time and I am looking forward to the Bar 10 ride. Keep the good times rolling! They had some great beer at the festival. Will do it again next year for sure. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
