Koonzee 26 Posted March 5, 2021 Hello. I will car camp near Borrego Springs and explore Anza Borrego SP and perhaps Glamis this week. Since I am traveling solo on a large dual-sport mc, I am interested in learning of others riding a larger dual-sport mc who also may be interested to exploring the area. I will eventually move onto Joshua Tree NP, Dumont Dunes & northern areas of Death Valley NP this month. Take care & ride safely.

Koonzee 26 Posted March 5, 2021 Also, I am open to exploring SoCal deserts with any rider who does not mind a slower pace and stopping for a few photographs once in a while. Finally, I will consider other riding areas not referenced above. I have time & my schedule is flexible. Thanks in advance! Koonzee Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bagstr 287 Posted March 5, 2021 KoonZee, Sorrento Valley, Friend, you are a local Serrento Valley Guy? Normally I would reach out to walk you around. Tied up with wife knee surgery, so out for awhile. Big Question, How are you with Deeep Sand? I can give you routes. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Koonzee 26 Posted March 5, 2021 Bagstr, Hello and thank you for replying. Yes, I am in Sorrento Valley, zip 92121. I would enjoy meeting local riders sometime. I rode a very similar itinerary in March of 2017. Being from the woodlands of SE Ohio, I learned a lot about sand during that desert trip...I think locals call them witches eyes/ditch(?) and then once I went over an unexpected drift like Jeronemo! The AT is a 'tank'... I typically take it easy and carefully analyze what's ahead. I learned sand can feel like treading water while trying to pickup a big dual-sport. All in all, I enjoy just cruising around, checking out new places and making a few memories with my camera. Most of my trip have been solo so I try not to get into too much 'trouble' and try to be self-reliant. Btw, I twisted my knee riding in Joshua Tree once.. the meniscus, and can appreciate the long recovery or rehab. Best of luck to you & your wife.

Koonzee 26 Posted March 5, 2021 Bagstr, In regards to routes, I appreciate the offer. However, I have plenty of material to reference at this time. Thx again. Koonzee Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
