Let's get together with some old friends and enjoy a cooler ride up Black Mountain and enjoy the sunset, then ride back in the dark.

 

Meet up at 680 Main St, Ramona, CA 92065 (Main Street Cafe) at 6:00pm  KSU 6:15pm.  Sunsets at 8:00pm so temps should be good.

I think I can squeeze this in. Would be fun to truck the 4fiddy to Ramona for this one.

Are you talking about going up Black Mountain ?

I was there a week ago and the gate to upper Santa Ysabel Truck Trail off Pamo Rd. was closed, probably still is.

Just curious why wouldn't you just ride the thing up there ? Or why wouldn't you just ride your Beemer up ?

I'd guess because he just got the 450, and it's likely a lot of fun to ride?

As for the gate, i've been to black mtn several times since the rain and yes gates were all closed. Both sides. I'm going to give it a shot Saturday am and well see.

I just called the ranger and it IS closed.  The last big rain damaged the road, they don't know when it will reopen

 

 

So I will cancel the trip. until I can figure out a new spot   Thanks for the tip @KTMrad

***Update: Looks like I was wrong and they fixed it and the gates are open, awesome 🤙🏻
 

They will never fix it, I mean I hope they do, but it's been closed a long time already. I've been up and down that thing a hundred times (when gates open) and have never seen one ranger.

Paging @PaulyPickles, we should try to get one going to Otay maybe??

Well shite. I like Black mtn. 
yeh, I like Tom’s suggestion of Otay. Watching the sunset into the ocean from the Otay Towers is very cool. And watching the lights of TJ come up as it gets darker. 
If Pokey has a plan for Tuesday, I’m in for it if it’s not north of Ramona/ Black. 
If not I may figure a fun route to top of Otay. So many options. 
 

But yes Randy, I’m just itching to ride the little bike (450) more. Come July I’ll be on the 1250 for 3 weeks.

Have you been to Eagle creek? Are the gates open on both ends?

I’d love to get an evening otay ride in soon but might be tough with the holiday. Then I’m taking the 1150gs on a 2 week trip to Northern California.

The gates are open! I did Black Mountain and Santa Ysabel Truck trails today with a few Jeeps. I don't know why the gates have been closed, but it wasn't for maintenance. The trails are rocky, rutted and fun. @Pokey151 when's a good time to have a 2'fer Tuesday? This coming Tuesday doesn't work for me, but maybe the following week?

Hey All, if you choose another date for this ride, please start a new thread with new title....easier to keep track of it that way.
