I’m getting ready to do an East County ride ending on Otay somewhere between Doghouse junction Marron Valley road. Gonna " shoot the moon ", and probably have a refreshment 🍻. Maybe stop and bring up a burrito? Hopefully I’ll get there early enough to relax and eat, drink, and be merry. 6:30ish or so, moonrise is 7:40ish. 

Im leaving around 3:30-4 if there’s any interest in joining me. 4C9D8035-537E-4987-BC68-30F622E86D33.thumb.jpeg.ebbd52f75f68b2a0e6bd23cfd3323e62.jpeg

Great idea, we had dinner company over otherwise I would have joined you.  Time for some taco Tuesday rides up there again?  Or a sunset BBQ that I keep talking about.....

I know it was short notice, sorry! It was kinda cold by the time I left! The road is groomed quite well currently, not a rut to be seen. I headed down towards Marron Valley road and Googled where the moon was going to rise and realized I couldn’t see it from there. Even that route was groomed. It was real nice for the loaded Wee Strom. The clouds were really cool rolling over lots of the hills below, at one point they started coming up the canyon towards Dog House, but then magically disappeared. Shortly after I arrived, a couple showed up in a Jeep, they had Wine and cheese, while I had beer and burrito! 

Ride on everyone 👍👍

A few more from my ride

Well done Weirdrider!  Those are great pics, and I consider it an great spontaneous adventure!  :)  Sometimes, when you look out in the garage at your bike, you just gotta go ride. Especially when it crosses your mind that you haven't ridden much and should plug in the battery tender - ouch  - haha.  Well done!  I rode a Bags style ride yesterday in Borrego spontaneously, no one there, nice weather, should have posted.... but just packed up and rode sin nombre, diablo drop, mud caves, indian gorge, etc....  Very nice.

Also, Great "trick" photography to make it look like you can actually jump that high - haha (as that is higher than I ever jump my 525  -smiles, well, unless I fall off a drop).  Or, maybe you photoshopped the wires out of the pic that were holding your body harness up!

By the way, on your Wee, do you have hiway pegs?  I zoomed in but couldn't tell...  and I can't seem to find good info for Hiway pegs on a weestrom, and you might know.

Also, could you share what rear tire you are running (as it looks a bit off-roadish, but then again, I know you are one of the more aggressive off road riders of the wee)?  Thanks for posting your adventure, Mac.

I don’t have hwy pegs, I kinda wanted some, but didn’t ever feel the need. Enduro Gaurdian used to sell hwy pegs, but they might not be around? Happy trails maybe, or fab some on.

 I’m pretty sure my rear tire is a Shinko 805. Tkc80 up front 

PS Good call on the PS, I rented a boom truck to come out there and hold me up!🤣

That's what I'm talking about brother.  Good pics (stop using my app - you'll make me look bad).
