dsfox 0 Posted August 26, 2012 A group of us are heading to Big Bear for the 3rd Annual Coon Cabin Adventure for Labor Day Weekend.. I've hosted this event for 3 years now. We don't stay IN the cabin, but it's an historic site, 8000' elev in the nice cool mountains... we tent, trailer, etc and split the cost of the group camp & group dinners. Unfortunately, only 10 vehicles allowed limits the camping which always fills up with usual riding friends before posting. BUT, DAY RIDERS WELCOME if anyone wants to head up there, stay elsewhere or just join a DAY RIDE we are there Friday- Monday Ready to ride about 9 am usually... BIKE CAMPERS? FEW CAMP SPACES OPEN if you can RIDE IN, Bike Camp.... and cook your own food.....(For those reserved, dinners set already) SEND A PM OR CALL ME IF INTERESTED (info in members only) or show up for a day... .

Strega 0 Posted August 31, 2012 I will pack for that... I also packed extra cold weather gear for the night... I forget what year it was, but I absolutely froze my ass off up there. I couldn't stay the 2nd night it was too damn cold. Capt Cham even loaned me an extra sleepin bag that I opened up and covered myself with on top of all the other stuff and STILL froze.
