I'm dying to go out riding but as jeeping goes, it's better to ride with others than it is to ride alone...

Ideally I'd wanna ride up freeway ridge... Or I know a few single track trails down in Taft, they could take you as far as maricopa :) if you'll travel a little we could hit up ballinger canyon. Its just off 166/33, lots of trails and I have a trailer to carpool with. I might even be willing to do jawbone canyon on a good weekend, in some cases my girl would be riding on back of mine so we all can have fun.

I just have an old beater 87 xr 250 so nothing crazy, just a change of venue instead of jeeps all the time

I need trail tires for my drz but I'm down to ride. I'll even pull the trailer or we can use mine to have shelter and seating....let's plan a trip

I have a 650klr that has yet to see any dirt. Would love to take it somewhere this summer. Ive only rode a few small bikes on dirt a few times so it just cant be anything crazy, tell I get the hang of a 450lb bike. Mothers day is next weekend so I think that will be a no go for me, but any weekend after that will work....

Yeah, I assumed mothers day is likely a no the weekend after my girl wants to go camping, so the next available weekend for me would be the 26th, I did a little riding Sunday off borel road up and around the black gulch south south campgrounds, the river was easily cross able for dirt bikes :), it was just a leisure trip with Melissa, I'm thinking rancheria road up by Evans flat area, the little trail leadin up to the piston monument and around that general area would be nothing too complicated, ballenger campground has trails all over ranging from green circles to black diamonds, it's alot of ups downs and sandy conditions, it's $5 a day per vehicle to play thou. Good camping spot though.

25 hill area is fun, wide open riding mostly oilfield lease sorta area thou. A lot of their single track I would suggest seat time, it's pretty tight and narrow. Its been a while since I have been out there, I'll have to inspect the area but I think it would be cool for frylock to get used to his bike there, and it's right her in the Taft area so it's nearby.
