ADV Bum 205 Posted November 21, 2006 I find myself with time on Wed 22. All this bad man talk has got me scared! Need some company. Who wants/can go? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
2Wheels 0 Posted November 21, 2006 I took a few days of leave this week so I could go exploring the back roads of San Diego, but what happens? A tube that supports the rear fender on my bike sheared off. Today I'm going to see if it can be welded. If it can be fixed - even if it's just tempory - I'm riding tomorrow. Otherwise, I'm grounded until a new part arrives. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

2Wheels 0 Posted November 21, 2006 How did you guess? Good news: I found a welding shop in Santee that can fix the tube. Bad news: It won't be ready until tomorrow. I'm grounded until Thanksgiving. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ADV Bum 205 Posted November 22, 2006 I live in Encinitas. Up for any type of ride. You seem much more knowledgabe about trails and such, so I will trust you. 12:00 is good. Depending on what you want to do, and where you want to do it, I can either ride out or truck it! Skill level is average. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

How about meeting at Bear Valley Off Road area to start. I-8 East, take Pine Valley Exit turn Right. I will be there at noon o'clock. We can ride Pine Creek then Thing Valley and loop back to Pine Valley. A mix of paved and dirt, nothing too challenging. Just good scenery. 2-4 hours.

ADV Bum 205 Posted November 22, 2006 Carguy I do appreciate your offer, but that trip will have to wait for and earlier day with less pressure. I need to get back and pack up bike/fam/stuff. We are going to mountains for extended weekend. Traffic trying to get back home would be 3 hrs. Wife already does enough nagging!! That would set a nasty mood for the hole weekend, and I would like to ride up there as well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

KIP 0 Posted November 22, 2006 from Julian it is 8 miles of pavement down Banner to the gate. Dirt from there some of it rough. It is a short dirt loop that doesnt take that long. Anyway it is 52 degrees up here at 6:30 am with clear skies. Looks like a good riding day. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

KIP 0 Posted November 22, 2006 10:30 at Norms Gas station in Julian sounds good - it will give me time to put a new tire on. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
