I might be up for an exploratory ride through Calavera tomorrow morning mon 6-23-08. I found some more fresh ST, but there are a couple other areas I figured I would czech out. If your off, or have time early morning..8:30 or so, It will be worth it. PM me for details. |

Welp, I got a good ride in, not as far as I should have ridden, but I didn't want to push my luck with the heat. Sorry no pictures, just a couple of stats. 9.6 miles, 1573 ft of total elevation gain. I did some exploring, tried to hit some of the old stomping grounds from my Calavera connector. It's safe to say that no one has ridden this area for a long time as it was extremely overgrown, lots of poison oak...grrrr, gonna go scrub up with some high power dish soap. I stopped to pee, made sure I didn't touch anything cause I've gotten the PO downstairs before and man thats no laughing matter...well at least until it clears up. |

I did some more exploring in LPQ. I found another tunnel trail. It got me to some migrant camps off the 56. I've come in from the other side, but I didn't see any trails last time. I got a feeling this stuff I'm finding is all pretty new. The new tunnel is very soft like the older tunnel used to be before it got popular. I saw a couple of guys riding back on a sort of switchback on the other side that was a little more makable than my climb out was. I was pushing my bike straight uphill. Glad nobody was bombing. There's still a lot of exploring to do. pictures to follow when my stupid computer comes back. |
