2018-08-27 Thread dougP
That's quite a load for an overnight.  A couple of times a year, a guy in 
our local club organizes an S24O.  Lots of roadies have camping gear but no 
way to carry it.  He has a trailer & ends up carrying a full load.  He 
calls it "Sherpa duty".

Thanks for the pics, especially the green hills.  Send some of that rain 
south about 400 miles!  

The Bomba especially has an attractive, 80s MTB look to it.  It's not as if 
either bike isn't perfectly suitable for what you're doing.  Go ahead, 
gloat just a little, to yourself anyway.

As if without squishy bikes there is no way to accomplish anything. My

It was a great route and was absolute Beautiful weather for January.
It is hard to believe that this is about a 30 minute ride out of the
Suburbs and the hustle and bustle of everything.

I do have to admit the way up was 65% Hiking with the Bike which I
did not mind since the weather was so nice. From Castle Rock it took
about 3 hours all the way up but only a nice hour down hill ride on
Fire Roads on the way back. Highlight was seeing two Bobcats on the
trail on the way back but I wasn't quick enough with the camera.

It was a great trip and I can definitely see a RBW Group trip
happening in the Spring if any one is interested???

If there's a big enough group, we can get a reservation for a group
campground. Meet at RBW and ride from there, perhaps?

That is fabulous.  Well done.  What's the name of the campground?
I've only stayed at Juniper.

 Hi Y'all,

 Headed up to Mt Diablo on Thursday night for my first solo S240. Took
 Fire Roads all the way to the top (Thank you Jim for the Heads up). It
 was allot of hiking with the bike but the way down was a breeze. Just
 picked up some new for 2011 47mm Marathons from Riv and they handled
 beautifully on the trails.

 Here are some pics of the Trip.
