Anyone interested??

It didn't give it to me when I clicked short URL. The preview looked ok, idk why it didn't post right.

When and how long? I've been looking for an excuse to head over the pass and go to Mammoth this year.

Too much information to get a short URL.

I am interested but won't be back until August unless I am not having fun.

 

[Jeff]

Wow that looks like a good 3 days or more ride. Same for me I would love to do that but it would have to be in late August sometime.

 

[norcal rider]

Interested. More detail?

 

[tomatocity]

I have ridden most of those roads but it would be nice to ride them with others.

-Sawyers Bar Road is a fun ride. During good weather. Has an alternate, Cecilville Rd, which I have not ridden.
-Bald Hills Road has three very different sections. East: asphalt and switch backs. Top: Tribal lands, unpaved, hard pack gravel, if wet the clay is slippery. West: downhill asphalt, leading into tall redwoods, TCS2 minimum, moss in the middle of the road. Suited for the Super Tenere.

There are many alternate routes along the way. Less I-5 the better, IMO.
- Stewart Springs Rd / IP Rd (wanted to ride this for 5-6 years)(connects I-5 to 3)
- Annapolis loop
- Mattole Rd (rough)
- Branscomb Rd (twisty fun)
- Trinidad Scenic Dr
- Patricks Point Dr / Stagecoach Rd
- Nacimiento-Fergusson Rd (paved)
- Coast Rd / Old Coast Rd (dirt) Bixby Bridge to Andrew Molera SP
- Santa Rosa Creek Rd (connects to Old Creek Rd at 46)
- Old Creek Rd
- Turri Rd (short but fun)
- Los Osos Rd (better than the traffic on Hwy 1)
- Vineyard Dr / Chimney Rd / Nicimiento Lake Rd / Interlake Rd (connects to Nacimiento-Fergusson Rd via Fort Hunter Liggett)
- and more that you all know of.

This is just information and not meant to steal any routes.

Lol, That route looks different on a real computer than it did on my iPhone. It is a little longer and goes more places.

What about sometime early September? DaFoole had something planned for Manchester Beach, and this route goes right through that area. I'm just a normal working guy, and can't really get much time off this time of year. That route looks like it will take more than a long weekend.

 

[Racesbikes]

So, late August early September I think would be good. I just threw it together in about 15 minutes, so any alterations are welcome. The way its set up right now most of the 4 days are 10hr plus days (nothing longer than 11 hrs). Overnights in Morro Bay, Fort Bragg, and McCloud for me.

@ Tomatocity: I cant even concentrate on the roads you posted right now but we should talk later.

 

[Racesbikes]

So any suggestions on what weekend? I'm open to whatever at this point.

 

[Sir Bo-Croat]

Yeah, ::012::

If'n when you do this, The Knights of the Oblong Table (Sir Cum Navigate and myself?) will most likely pick up this ride in Morro Bay and head north upon it.

What say you Sir Cum Navigate?

For now, I am just excersizing my ability to speculate ::021::

 

[Don in Lodi]

Is that about 1K? Do it in less than 24hrs and be recognized for it, LOL.
