HotRod82 2 Posted March 1 Anyone interested in parking at the Ocotillo Chevron and doing a loop this weekend? No set route, just wander around and maybe head for Borrego or Salton City for lunch and fuel. Intermediate (ish) skill level. Low key, no stress ride!

350thumper 336 Posted March 1 I could use a rip thru the dez. What day and time works? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bfar33 165 Posted March 1 How much fuel range would be necessary? Stock tank on a KTM 350 be OK? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HotRod82 2 Posted March 2 You'll probably be OK as I was planning on heading to Salton City or Borrego for fuel. Don't let that stop you from joining us, I'll throw in my little Moose fuel bag for insurance. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bfar33 165 Posted March 2 Awesome, would love to join. I'll see if I have a 1L fuel bottle I can bring. Looking forward to it! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HotRod82 2 Posted March 2 Great. Looks like it may be a little windy, but we'll power through. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bfar33 165 Posted March 2 Got the fuel issue all sorted out, I should have 130+ miles of range. See y'all tomorrow at 8. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

No rain, but the wind came up later in the day after we stopped for fuel in Salton. The dirt is still really good, the sand is still wet underneath. Turned into a pretty big day at 138 miles....good times! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bfar33 165 Posted March 5 Not too much stopping with that kind of mileage but I managed to snag a few pictures. Long, foggy, and rainy drive from San Diego but saw a good omen dropping down to the sunny desert floor. 350thumper usually leads rides out here but wanted to ride sweep today and look for anything that falls off my bike (like me) Doesn't matter how sketchy, 350thumper always volunteers to go first HotRod82 does not hesitate 350thumper peeled off after a late lunch, kicked up a windstorm pinning the 650Large through the sand Nearing the end, well deserved water break Fun ride, awesome meeting you HotRod82 and great to ride with you again 350thumper 3 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
