Sat Nov 5, big bike ride

Post by Creekside »

I have not decided where to go yet, south Emporia, Pomona, or Alma - meet near one of those at ~9:30am, ride till 3~3:30 head home. It'll depend on who else from advrider tags along. MIx of gravel, dirt and a few out roads.

You'll need to shot me a contact PM.

a few off us out went out to Alma area. Can't post any pics at this time. Hondamxracer, I, Gort (advrider) and Snowman.

Snowman did a great job of navigating Divide (off Skyline) which was actually the most difficult road of the day. Good job for a beginner! On purely street tires too.

East of 4 hiway has alot of changes (4-99-335 triangle area), as Troy says, they change often and allot. Dragoncreek is now a gravel hiway.

For those that have enjoyed Box Turtle and Christy - well they are closed. :evil:

Box has work crews, fences, & bulldozers. Christy had a little busted cement bridge and a steep ditch bypass, I passed on my big pig on that. It was just too narrow in that hole to get back up in loose dirt, and if you fall back down you have a busted out cement bridge section to 'help' slow your decent on the left.

Great day for riding, too bad about the loss of two good tracks.
