Feel like doing something crazy tomorrow on the rigid singlespeed in the Santa Ana range. Will ride down lower Holy Jim, turn around at the falls trail back up to Upper HJ. Advanced ride due to the amount of climbing involved, and Coldwater is not really walkable or rideable at the bottom :lol: . Can meet up at North County Fair by BJ's around 7AM. Going for it.....rain here, but no indication it is raining up there.

It was near perfect.....fresh rain, not too wet, cool temps. 6000 ft of climbing or so.

Lower Holy Jim is in excellent condition.

Coldwater.....absolute wonder on the upper half, just crazy good......lower half was totally choked with overgrowth to the extreme, nearly impassable....a major bushwhack.

Gosh I wish I had seen this earlier! Sounds like a fun ride ride, never been. I'll have to start checking this DT stuff more often. Nice pics too BTW!
