carguy 1 Posted November 14, 2006 Last Saturday we found a route that headed up towards Mountain Spring from Ocotillo. I want to ride it! If it goes through, we can ride from the desert floor to the mountains with only a short asphalt run. We can take the old Mountain Springs Road up from there. The upper part is difficult. When Dennis, MikeyB and I did it there was alot of step and fetch to survive. Mountain Spring This would be a good Hard Core Challenge!!!! Anybody interested????? We can do it Sunday or Saturday. Post interest! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Joliet 0 Posted November 14, 2006 I am going to try to be there. Suddenly my wife thinks I am not spending enough time at home doing things around the house. I must not be cranky enough or she would welcome the chance to get rid of me for a day. I am hopeing to get my new skid plate this week and I will have to test it out(yea she will buy that one definately, definately). I think the plan will be to ride Saturday and Sunday for a couple of weeks and then when she complains, I will graciously stop riding on Sundays and we will both win. Anyway sounds like a great ride and I am in, probably. Ken Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
papaalex 5 Posted November 14, 2006 Hi guys, my bike is still in the shop, but a good chance that I get it back by Thursday/Friday. I'm interested, and at the same time, concerned that it could be a little beyond my skills level. I'll think about it . Later Alex. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
carguy 1 Posted November 14, 2006 papaalex Posted Today, 11:51 AM I'm interested, and at the same time, concerned that it could be a little beyond my skills level. Alex, It could be beyond my skill level as well. You won't know what your skill level is if you don't test it. Steve, it looks like that Honda would just walk right up the hill!! Make sure the laces are tight. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
carguy 1 Posted November 15, 2006 We will start from the 1st brake on last Saturdays ride. We are starting from the bottom because we can always turn back down, up is harder. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Later Alex. alex dont worry if it looks insane we can find another way ,we will NEVER let anyone attempt something that you arnt comfortable with. ...remember "RIDE YOUR RIDE". ..hope to see you there Ok here is the whole route in red that I would like to try. There is a small freeway strech then some steep rocky stuff that I have been on. We are starting from the bottom because we can always turn back down, up is harder. looks like you"ve done your homework John, How far up that wash have you been? is it the one that runs under Diablo canyon bridge on the 8 west? your right about starting at the bottom. its USUALLY easier to back track.....we dont need another helo dust off Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
carguy 1 Posted November 15, 2006 It should be WB I-8 Devils Canyon. Still doing research. Only made it up to the blue line in the first google pic. I think Diablo is the next bridge and we will not go under it. (we can if we make it that far and explore!)
