    We road up the road and HJ today, the conditions for riding or driving are fine. There was a large puddle in the beginning of the road and some puddles in various spots going back but nothing that couldn't be cleared with a Honda Civic :). The creek crossings were only a couple inches deep. No mud at all on any of the singletrack, only on Trabuco Road.

    Here's the rout info. It's not bad but the wall is tough. Time shouldn't be an issue since we are starting so early.

    Now let's see who is the first to use your comment as there signature. ;)

    Pat,

    Worst case scenario: just walk the wall?

    Mile?

    No ego here. No testicles, either.

    That's what I did last time. No ego here either. I leave my testicles with my wife so I don't get into trouble. :lol:

    Got to leave now for a pedicure, but I'll check the thread later and RSVP.

    Anyone with a seat in their vehicle and room for a bike to the HJ Trailhead??:):):) And, yes, I can reciprocate with cervezas.

    I will be at the Live oak turn off at 7ish as well, if anyone else needs a ride in. I have a silver Tacoma.

    I need to be back to the trail head by 10:30am - possible?

    Someone already posted a map to the place and I am pretty sure I know where this place is but can someone post an address or directions to the trailhead (actually outside the dirt road to ride in).

    I have a good idea of where it is, it would just suck to be lost out there. Thanks.
