    Okay it is raining in Southern California and I am off the bike for a little bit so I have made the time to start finishing up some projects that have been languishing on the hard drive for a while.

    Back in July I rode Wilder Ranch in Santa Cruz. I have ridden it several times now and it is fun and extremely pictureque. The video does it little justice.

    Looks like a beautiful place to ride. How refreshing to see good quality video after so many crap quality Youtube vids.

    Very nice job on the editing.

    very nice, I had a great ride up there in early Nov. Nice to be amongst the big trees and tacky dirt.

    Great video. Feeling wistful and having heart pangs. Wilder in July. Excellent. I hope to be there in February and hope the weather will have been dry for a few days.
    We've been riding there for years and it is always a must do stop on our trips up north. Hard to beat that place. Thanks!
