is that Hungry Valley?

I took a drive up to the high desert today to look at a used trials bike for sale. I didn't really gel with the bike....it just wasn't calling my name. But I did discover that there is lots and lot of open land up that way to ride on, so the trip wasn't in vain. I think I will have to drag one of my street plated bikes up there very soon.

Nope, that's a forest service road between San Francisquito cyn and Lake Hughes up above Castaic. There were quite a few stream crossings that were a bonus as well!

Reminds me of riding in Aruba.

Pretty much everything has been closed here for a while and they're taking it pretty seriously

 

[2premo]

well it's somewhat clear, as I went up a few hundred feet started seeing more snow
problem is 200 feet and it was getting dicey, my main trails are 1500 feet up
so a little more time will help

 

[2premo]

why are these pics turned?

 

[2premo]

the lower part of my ride, came to a log obstacle, fortunately for this older (senior) rider it was not in the snow
best part about this is I am riding out of my garage
the trails are close but no cigar for the higher elevations, and I know cigars
FYI recently the snowmobiles were on these trails, I had one a few years back

 

[2premo]

stupid pictures are still turned

Those look like some pretty nice trails. Good to see that you are out on the 360.

if you like those trails, you should see the "good" trails, they are WAY better
the riding out of here is 2 steps above amazing, and never even used
it's like owning Disneyland for personal use

Maybe I SHOULD see the good trails. Not like I'm going to be doing anything with my life here in California very soon.

went a little higher today, the snow from the last pics is 80% gone
but higher up and on my single track was more, still worth it lots of it was clear but had trees down so had a great time

by design most motorcycles are over 6' long and by that means automatic send distancing, unless you run into someone
the doctors recommend vitamins ,you get D from the sun abnd fresh air outside, the riding areas should be opened for health reasons

Went out on Monday for the first time in a month. Boy, am I out of shape. Simple fire roads kicked my butt.

My business stopped so I left to Santa Fe. Found snow around 9500’. Tried to get to the peak on the sunny side but could not get through the last snow drift

Had a fun weekend ... Saturday was wet ..Sunday the rain stopped, still overcast and cool. Covered the river valley and up the mountains ... took a friend along this time ... he runs a Tm 300 2018 ... he’s hooked on the area ... we both each had a gooder batcrash but all is fine ... Lol
