    It could have been so much worse, we got lucky haha.

    Dude right before that he almost dumped the bike heading toward your truck.:eek:

    Down and down. We will have to figure out a place that I am not responsible for leading us to :D Hollister or Prairie City has my vote. I know that there is a river bed out in Hollister that a lot of people go out to as an "unofficial" park but I do not know how Sketch that is.

    The river bed is pretty cool, I have been out there to ride my CRF250. Lots of sand and rock, there are some sick rhythm sections and whoops out there. I saw a few other people out there mostly walking there dogs and riding horses. We thought we were being eyed by a cop last time we were there but nothing came of it...

    I'd be down but my car has been making a weird popping noise in the front when turning left.
    Not sure if I wanna put additional miles till I figure it out.

    Just met toynado and two other guys in the area who are up for a cruise in October. Unfortunately, September won't work for me. Toynado, let us know when you have a free weekend.

    I've driven buzzard lagoon before, one of my favorites to drive. It's mostly dirt and mud, no gravel. There's some shrubbery that can scratch your truck, but easily avoidable. I got there from eureka canyon. The road is technically closed during the winter but mountain bikers ride it year round, so I don't think anyone really cares.
