Last weekend I rode some of the local So. Poway Trails, Its still tough living in a 200 horse town. This photo was taken at the trailhead of the Beeler Canyon Trail just off Sycamore Canyon Road.

From here I started climbing toward the Gooden Ranch Staging Area and came upon this ... Evidence that extreme pogo sticking is catching on , or evidence that Equestrians can't read.

Rather than go up and down Martha's I rode up Calle De Rob. Technically Calle De Rob is still closed for construction of the Sunrise Power Link, but since the power link was completed like 5 years ago. I figured I would be safe from running into any construction traffic. I found this about half way up. Calle De Rob is not dead but, it is on life support.

Trail closures, infuriating equestrians, and stupid steep hills but South Poway still has a lot going for it. I did 15 miles and gained 1500ft of elevation. The hole ride was on, out of the park trails, with only a little Calle De Rob poaching.
