Shuttle Sunday

[Abstrakt77]

Anybody up for shuttling something this Sunday? I'm trying to find more DH spots in the OC.

[Do Work]

Hmmmm...what area and time frame were you thinking about?
Ive been super sick for the past week and it doesnt seem to be getting any better so im worthless when it comes to any climbing right now but still want to get some ride time in...i can always find enough strenth for a shuttle run

[Abstrakt77]

I'm open to any time. As far as location, the only spots I know of are SJT and Laguna. Any other cool spots we can hit?

[Do Work]

Never ridden SJT but what trails in Laguna were you thinking?
What exactly were you looking for in the trail so i can brainstorm a bit and see what i can come up with?

Try santiago oaks, it can be shuttled!You have three runs you can do.

Something fast and flowy, or slow and tech. I'm not picky.

3? Chutes, Waterfall, whats the 3rd? Where would the shuttle pickup and drop offs be?

[Do Work]

You can shuttle oaks (5 minutes from my house) and park one car at the Albertsons and the shuttle at the top by the school or the homes near the play area.

The first section after the play area near the tower is pretty fast and fun...ive seen people bomb down the section and just walk back up it-its not long but its a good section to hit a few times to build skills...even some jumps there!

We park down off some street in Orange ( there is some railings on the right side of the road, houses on the left) Shuttle up to the towers and ride down. Then you go back through the park back to the cars.I have always done 4 runs.I wish I knew the street names, but I just know it by going.

It looks like you can park off of Avenida De Santiago (at the top)which is where the paved road,by the road gap jumps at the play area,will take you if you follow it out.
Ill check tonight when i go home tonight to make sure its not a gated community there but that looks like the perfect spot to shuttle to if its open.
I'll report back my findings tonight...wish me luck

Sweet, thanks!
Where would you suggest parking, on that street or down a few streets?
What are you doing sunday Socalridur??? You up for some shuttling?

[bighit8]

yea thats it. I think the lower parking spot is off of serrano drive.

[Do Work]

Well Abstrakt77...sounds like shuttling THE Oaks is doable and IMOP very fun stuff to practice your skills on.
I'll try and brainstorm some more and post again if i come up with anything

Who is Don Whill?

[Abstrakt77]

Sounds like a plan is brewing. Would it be the same shuttle point if hitting Waterfall/Goat? That fireroad hike is horrendous.

Los Pinos is fast and flowy, and has some slow tech at the end.
