paulmbowers 236 Posted January 2, 2020 https://www.relive.cc/view/v1vjpYn3rY6 SoCalMule had a tight lead on his halter, so we started early and finished by noon. After 120 miles... I took one picture on my way to Borrego: 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MacDuncan 131 Posted January 2, 2020 Nice post PM, I was able to follow the route as if I was there Well done. That's a cool app. I hope the other boys had a good lap and really wish I was on one of those rides - dang emergent house chores - grrr. Cheers. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SoCalMule 106 Posted January 3, 2020 Paul what a treat! That was a fun track we shared today. You are a good friend to get out on the trail with me so early...and plainly a good friend. Thank you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I’d be an even better friend (hard to believe, I know!) if you didn’t hurl a baseball-sized stone like a cannonball at my instep with your back wheel. Got a helluva hematoma going here.

MacDuncan 131 Posted January 3, 2020 Thanks, Super cool data on that interactive global perspective, from the ride link you shared. When I saw your first loop, I was wondering why when you got to Vallecitos you decided to go back to pinyon drop instead of heading to diablo drop, I didn't think it was a gas issue (as they might have been about the same from where you were to where you were going, and you must of had the big tanks, or carried gas, for that kind of loop....., but maybe you just wanted more dirt since you already logged a few tarmac miles, or the fun of the stairs and heart attack hill to round out the day. Regardless, well done to the both of you, and for the early sunrise crisp morning start, the dirt and sand must have been super! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
paulmbowers 236 Posted January 3, 2020 Nah. I turned the wrong direction, over the objections of TheMule. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bagstr 287 Posted January 3, 2020 Oroflamme Canyon - I suspect you “Tested the gate at the Pacific Crest Trail”? How much traffic westward from gate? Also Pinion Canyon Drop question: Had every 4 Wheeler west of Denver churned the track in a Test of their masculinity ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Also Pinion Canyon Drop question: Had every 4 Wheeler west of Denver churned the track in a Test of their masculinity ? We stopped at the easily-circumvented yet well-signed gate. The road on both sides of the gate displayed signs of recent grading and frequent traffic. I didn't think any of the trails we rode yesterday were particularly trashed. We did ride Old Kane Springs off Split Mountain which has always been a whooped mess, and remains so. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
