Default Heading To Area in a Couple of Weeks

I can't wait to get down there. I go 2X each year. It is some of the best riding around. Glad you had a good time.

All great rides, and I have done day rides to them as well. We will be out there for the Memorial Weekend. Can't wait to get back in the mountains. Another great ride in up near BRP, it is Virginia Rt 40 from Ferum to Woolwine. From there go up 8 and catch some BRP. We were upthere yesterday.

In the link, there are 3 *** because of the word " f a g " being blocked on HDF.
replace the *** so the youtube link looks like J O w F A g G 2 Z U k

Ah saw the video searching on youtube. Looks like Hwy 78 East of Julian, CA. We have a stretch of road like that going to the Sandia Crest also. Very nice.
