    Ok, I'm in... Bringing the SS and holding up the rear, as I am not in the greatest shape, and I have yet to do this trail...

    The videos I've seen are great! From what I've read, the gate should be open now...

    Some people form nrmbc said it was open also, but we should move through quickly and not make our presence known on their property.

    Sorry fellas, can't make it tomorrow.

    But let's do an exploratory ride around dos viento area. I want to explore a couple of sections that I've only been on couple of times and want to link them together with my usual dos viento ride. Should be around 12-14 miles with descent amount of climbing (maybe around 1800ft). This is an area only locals ride so should be new dirt for most people. It's like fully loop but heck a lot more climb but not terribly technical although it does have a few small bumps here and there.

    How about Saturday 8am?
