Nice pics, Harley! :thumbsup:

I don't remember the sunrise through sunset sign before... we used to night ride there. When did that go up. I also don't remember dogs being forbidden (not that I have one, so I may have just not paid any attention) :?:

Not sure when the sign went up,
It looks new. Dog sign is new too.

It is a climbing trail more than a descending trail since the turns are off camber, for the most part. That may change later this year.

It is a good change up from the up/down on the same trails out there. I use it to loop up the ride.

Say, Kimba, since your'e clearly familiar with the place, would you say that the trails are "single speed" friendly? I ride LPQ and DMM (wherever that is) on my SS all the time, so I can manage a climb out there like Powerlines, or one of those others whose names I can't remember..... :thumbsup:

^^^ I don't have a SS but I have seen several there. La costa is steeper and rockier than PQ though.
