Borrego 200

[350thumper 336]

hey erry body.

.Wondering if any interest in a 200mi dezert run from Apine to Borrego  . Mostly off road.

90 mile fuel range needed.

Also 450-650cc plated  dual sport 

The route is moderately easy (for me).

Casual pace. Preferably on a weekend.

Waypoints: water crossings, single track,  Dolomite mines, Red feather , Painted Gorge , & Borrego monument

Update this ride is for this weekend only. 

Can meet up around s2 if there's another group nearby.

A small herd of (BMW) buffalo will be wandering that area this weekend.  We will be the ones giving your group a parade wave as you (or we) go by.

Forecast looks to be about 90* in Borrego.  This could be one of the last weekends to go get some desert before the sand starts to boil.

I actually ride the dez more at summer time.

I'm gonna try to meet up with your group around s2 Oriflamme area on Saturday morn. Bringing a +1

Cool. I can’t commit as to when we will roll through. Estimated departure of 7am from La Mesa. 

[350thumper 336]

Thats great news because I can't commit to when we will be rolling thru either so thats perfect timing on your part.

Estimated departure from alpine   7:15.

If you're in my contacts I can txt you right before we descend upon the roundevouz designation. 

 

Yay..fun on my dirt bike im excited.

My +1 just flaked Big Time. 

I'm flying solo , the weather on the mountain has been wet and loomy .

Right now there is about 50 ft visibility. 

If it keeps up I may disclude my self from the adventure due too swampy conditions and low visability.over the pass.

Turned out to be a stunner. The view from inspiration pt was shockingly clear at 8:15 am. We don’t get too many days this clear. Wish my iPhone could have captured it better.

Nice!

Saturday we popped out the bottom of Oriflamme about noon or so.  Decided to ride the loops at Blaire valley and have our snack lunch there near the pit toilets.  Then off to Grapevine for more fun.  RR in the proper forum to follow in the next day or so.

When did they pave Inspiration Point?

[Zubb 1061]

I don't know but I believe it's been paved since I started stopping there 4 or 5 years ago.
