N2TM 0 Posted April 16, 2010 I'll likely park across the street at the usual meeting spot and ride over to the Stagecoach Trails. I'm hoping to lead one group with N2TM as sweep. 146.505 I am reluctantly cancelling this ride. New obligations have crept into my schedule........Yesterday I was riding in the desert and the wild flowers are still in bloom and will continue to provide the "eye candy" that this time of year is known for. I have enjoyed riding there for the last 5 weeks in a row and haven't seen the flowers melt away yet. Enjoy. :lol2: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Joliet 0 Posted April 17, 2010 Never ridden that area, I am 99% in. I have about a 100mile range on my stock tank, is that enough? Please read the post, all the info is there. Fakey, yes........I got your request, I'm not going to respond to each request until I send out the GPS tracks, which will be Saturday afternoon or evening. Thanks. Will there be someone with a computer Sunday morning to load tracks? I don't want to drive back to work Saturday night just to load the tracks on my gps.

dirt dame 559 Posted April 19, 2010 Must have been a great ride???? No posts? pics? My thoughts exactly. I was sure there would be a big write up with lots of photos and stories. I'm assuming that the only story so far from this ride was somebody's unfortunate injury. If that's the only report that's worthy of posting, maybe it's a good thing that I didn't go. Certainly there must have been a few SDAR members who went on this ride. ????? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
paulmbowers 236 Posted April 19, 2010 I lead the second group with DigDug as an excellent sweep. Other valued members of our group were Joliet, KTMlicious, and a few others who's screen name I don't know. Grant from GP rode his plated CR500 until it seized just after BluInn. Bad news about Jasper- it's been graded. Good news is that if I ever need to drive my lowered Volvo wagon through there, I'd probably make it. With the trailer attached. The bike-sucking rut is still there, though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I have noticed about every 5 years its graded. Our 2nd Desert Dash was the worst I ever saw it. It was graded shortly after. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Strega 0 Posted April 19, 2010 The bike-sucking rut is still there, though. Ted unwisely followed me into that at the last DD. Hilarity ensued. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I've ridden that road alot over the past 4 years and never was it as much fun as during the DD. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
