I had the pleasure of going for a solo ride, because a solo ride in the woods is better than a day on the couch.
Looks like you had a nice trip. This is a strange time of year around here. It is a transitional time between summer vacation and fall schedules. It's hit or miss if people will be at those types of places midweek.
Nice pics. I was just up in the mountains myself with a group of friends. Good shot of the lake. All lakes look suspiciously like they should have good fishing to me.
When I saw the title of this report my first thought was "Hey! Maybe he didn't see my braid hanging out of my helmet! I'm not a guy!" Nice ride, Phil. Was the big lake Ice House Reservoir? And were the last few photos taken on the way back down to 50 on the road that goes to Wright's Lake? It drops you down onto 50 just east of Kyburz. I've done a lot of exploring and singletracking in the ElDorado and it's beautiful up there Thanks for posting up the ride report WoodsChick
Hey Phil, Great pictures Thx. Although not really recommended I like riding by myself too sometimes. I have to start taking my GPS along just to see where I've gone.
Your close Woodsy, The lake is Union Valley, and everything else is where you thought. The bike shots were at the Rock Creek OHV area. I hear ya Husky, but I have a pre planned map that I give to my wife where I will be and check in a few times so she knows where I am. It helps that she rides these areas as well. I thought about a spot location devise, but I ride where there are big trees and have heard that they do not do so well in these areas. Yes Dirtdame, the German Browns are huge in that lake. The Rainbow population is doing well.
Me too. I would like to hear from those who have one. If trees or high mountains adversely affects it's use. Maybe that's for a new thread so I don't jack this one.
Great minds think alike. When I read the title I was pretty sure that the guys in that black sedan had released some photos of me. Phil: That's some nice riding area you have there, I would love to come up some weekend and go for a ride with you.
The wife and I went rafting on the American out of Colima one year. Very fun and exciting, better than Disney's by far. That pic of the American looked very familiar. The scariest part of the rafting was taking the school bus down a steep and twisty road to the river.
Any time there headlight modification guru. Hit me up when you want to ride. Glangston, that part of the river is where the river enters the Coloma state park or real close to where you would have been done with your rafting adventure
For rides like this I would love to have a TE 610. That is a beautiful bike with the rack and Leo Vince pipe. An excellent DS indeed! My 510 would need 2+ tanks of gas to cover that much ground.
