I am thinking about organizing a “small” dual sport adventure the weekend 10 days from now. I think it would be fun to get some of the GS riders out (+650cc bikes). I never see them out on the trail…
The itinerary would be something like this:
- 7:30am, meet at North Bend Safeway to gas up.
- 8:00 mount up and ride to Lion Rock (East of Liberty, North of Ellensburg) and set camp at the camp ground.
- 10:00am – noon: do some clinics on the flats not far from the campground
- Afternoon: ride to Yakima and back on (90%) gravel
- Evening: more clinics around the camp fire
Sunday Sept 26th:
- Morning: explore around Lion Rock. Different difficulty levels are available.
- Mid-day: do some of the difficult tracks
- Afternoon: ride back
Some other thoughts:
- Hauling bikes there is not an option. This is about 1) riding to the adventure, 2) doing the adventure, and 3) riding home.
- I would love to get 8-15 people together.
- I want to break in my new knobby rear tire before I put the studded tires on the rims, and they close several off-road areas on 10/10/2010.
