Wrightwood Mountain/Desert Ride - May 19th

WRIGHTWOOD RIDE – MAY 19, 2007

Wrightwood, CA

What: Wrightwood Ride
When: Saturday, May 19th….meet at 10:00am and ride at 10:30ish
Where: Desert Community Bank parking lot; 1261 Highway 2, Wrightwood

We’re putting together an awesome ride! Everyone is welcome! It’ll include riding out to Vincent’s Gap (elevation about 7,000), Devil’s Punchbowl, a stop at the world’s famous Charlie Brown Farms, and then back to Wrightwood for a BBQ at our house. If you haven’t been up in the San Gabriel’s or ridden through the desert, you’re in for a great ride! Where else can you ride 100+ miles and only have ONE light and a couple of stop signs? Total miles are about 100-120 miles. It'll be a long ride so come prepared and wear layers as it gets hot once we hit the desert floor. There’s a gas station in town to fill up before the ride and there’s another one across from Charlie Brown Farms. There’s room in the parking lot for trucks & trailers. My husband has offered to follow us in the truck for emergencies. He'll have the ramp, 2 canyon dancers, and some tie-downs. Oh, and an ice-chest with bottled water. How's that? He’ll even carry your gas can for you!

Rain will either cancel ride or we can probably move it to Sunday, the 20th.

E-mail me if you’d like more info. - Linda Quinn : klquinn797@yahoo.com
