danrider 5 Posted August 30, 2016 I talked with ADV-BUM about doing a bike ride up in Big Bear at the end of September or first part of October. ADV-BUM has a place up in Big Bear that we could camp at with facilities and water. We would just have to pitch in for two nice BBQ dinners and beer. I believe we all could meet somewhere for breakfast and lunch each day. I will be leading a big bike ride. Someone could lead a skinny bike ride if they wanted to do that. I am putting this out to our membership to see who would be interested in going. Please let me know soon so I can work this out with ADV-BUM. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mr.JAJA 380 Posted August 31, 2016 I have it on my calendar, and yes dirt please. We just have to make sure the trail from "Angelus Oaks" to the "Skyline Dr". is open. Should be hunting season, than the gates are open. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

darylhunter 1 Posted September 1, 2016 10/7 as in Oct 7? Would this be a big bike ride as in the picture? I don't have travel booked that weekend, so maybe there's hope for me Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Oracle 195 Posted September 1, 2016 My buddy Adam and I were already planning this route for this same weekend. He has a cabin in Green Valley Lake. We'll be riding up Friday, leaving Ramona in the morning...all dirt...all (well most) of the way. Small bikes. High speed, low drag. Wives and kids are meeting us up there and we'll be trucking the bikes home on Sunday. Lots of riding Saturday though. As it gets closer, lets compare notes and maybe we'll cross paths...
