2Wheels 0 Posted November 7, 2007 cool so meaby i can ride with you if you like ? i can come over to your house and from there we go together ? around what time you was thinking to leave your home? let me know Stefano You can come to Eastlake first if you want, but it'd really be much shorter and faster for you to go straight east on I-8 to Japatul Rd/Hwy 79 and meet me there. I-8 and Hwy 79 is right on your way to Jacumba from Pacific Beach. Eastlake is going to take you on a 40 mile detour. Here are copy and paste MapQuest directions from Pacific Beach to Hwy 79 & I 8. 1: Start out going EAST on GRAND AVE toward JEWELL ST. 1.4 miles Map 2: Stay STRAIGHT to go onto MISSION BAY DR. 0.3 miles 3: Merge onto I-5 S. 2.3 miles 4: Merge onto I-8 E via EXIT 20 toward EL CENTRO. 37.9 miles 5: Take the CA-79 / JAPATUL RD exit- EXIT 40- toward JULIAN. 0.2 miles 6: Turn LEFT onto CA-79 / JAPATUL VALLEY RD. <0.1 miles 7: End at Japatul Valley Rd & I 8, Alpine, CA 91901, US Total Est. Time: 43 minutes Total Est. Distance: 42.50 miles I'm going to leave my house at 5:30 and I'll be going by Hwy 79 & I-8 on my way to Jacumba. From my house to Hwy 79 & I-8 MapQuest gives: Total Est. Time: 42 minutes Total Est. Distance: 31.49 miles You'd have to leave Pacific beach at 5:00 AM to get to Eastlake by 5:30. I've PM'd you my address and Cell # in case you want to go to Eastlake first. Let me know what you decide. From Hwy 79 & I-8 to the Valero in Jacumba the route is: 1: Start out going SOUTHWEST on CA-79 / JAPATUL VALLEY RD. <0.1 miles 2: Merge onto I-8 E via the ramp on the LEFT. 33.6 miles 3: Take the exit toward JACUMBA. 0.1 miles 4: Turn RIGHT onto CARRIZO GORGE RD. <0.1 miles 5: Turn RIGHT to stay on CARRIZO GORGE RD (Portions unpaved). 1.4 miles 6: End at Carrizo Gorge Rd & I 8, Jacumba, CA 91934, US Total Est.

Ride-Orange 2 Posted November 7, 2007 Hi Guys! I'm starting to feel really ill *cough-cough* and looking forward to getting into the fresh dry air of Jacumba to try to clear-up this nasty *cough-cough* Friday Flu of mine. It also looks like a fine group of experienced riders are forming-up for this one My buddy PalmAveRider (you'll recognize him as the "Guy" in my fire fighting post) is planning to join us as well - Challenge: PAR get off work at sunrise and needs to commute from Downtown to Otay and back to Lemon Grove, then he and I will head East together which puts us in Jacumba around 08:30ish I know what your saying: "Why is this knucklehead burdening us with his personal problems? " Well, I'm soliciting the group to PM me some cell phone numbers so that PAR and I can try to play catch-up along the trail. Armed with that and my experience as a Boy Scout (that's right - all the way to Second Class!), I think our chances of finding y'all are better than most I've already got a couple, but hit me with yours and I'll send ya back mine. Thanks! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That works better for me - allows me to sleep a little more on my day off. Whaddya say bikeslut? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ride-Orange 2 Posted November 8, 2007 DON'T CHANGE THE TIME ON OUR ACCOUNT!!! The last thing I want to do is HIJACK A RIDE It looks like spraugh is probably one of the most experienced in the area out of this group, so I imagine he will be voted "leader". If anyone can give me a rough idea of route, it will increase our chances of finding you (i.e. starting South of I-8 and exploring the mines & KLR canyon, then under the freeway to the North side on the route to Mountain Springs, etc...) I'll also have the Garmin Rinos and we'll monitor 22.5 on the radio. If we can't find you, rest assured thet we will roost in your honor Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm gonna use a 13 instead of normal 14. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
