TUESDAY MORNING RIDE !!!
It's been awhile since I was able to get a ride in after work on a tuesday morning. But I guess all the stars lined up right and blessed me with this beutiful 3rd day of fall even thou it was 90 degrees it's still fall. Rode out Greenspot rd. to Redlands. It took me 1hr2min to get to greenspot liquor. Thats a pretty good 16-mile time trail from my house. I got caught at a few lights but for the most part it was non-stop. From there I headed up crafton ave. To highland and zig-zagged threw Redlands til I got to california st. then took Palm back to Berdoo. 2hours 12min. 37-miles. Nop pics, I was busy pedaling ;-).

San BernaGhetto National Forest
I just don't understand people and the way they think. Maybe it's up-bringing or maybe it's in the water. I'm riding up Elder gorge from East Highland and when I get to the 1n09 junction I come across this pile of crap, not the bear crap that I've seen behind city creek forest station but trash from lazy people. At first I thought it might be a gathering of trash from the area that someone or a group might have picked up but from the looks of it , it's just trash that was dropped off. I try my hardest to back this town up and post pics of this beutiful terrain that I love to ride but this is just upsetting. I tried to let the forestry know about this but the city creek office was closed on sunday. If I care so much am I the one that has to pic it up? I'm doing this ride again next weekend to see if it's still there or if more has been added to it. I guess if it bothers me so much, I'll probaly have to pick it up myself. Anyway lets talk about the rest of my ride. After climbing Manzanitta I headed down Hwy 330 to the city creek forest station were I tried to ride behind Highland and San Manuel Indian reservation and come down the fire road at the top of Del Rosa. It didn't happen . I rode about 1-1/2 miles if that and the trail just ended. I think it's just grown over and I didn't really feel like bushwakin since I paste I nice fresh pile of bear crap that was still a little steamy. So I turned around I headed down the hwy back to my little ghetto town. 36-miles of pedaling in 3hours not to bad.

Fire's suck
Once again the local mountains are on fire. So sad. I read on mtbr that the flames have reached Rim Nordic. We'll see as soon as the road is open. Other than that not much goin on. Sunday I gat 50-miles in on the scalpel. rode from my house out Pioneer st. in Redlands, up and over Crafton, up Crafton again and back down to the Mentone wash and home via Greenspot Rd.
Monday Milkman and I rode from Newport Beach to Long Beach and back via pacific coast hwy.
Once in seal Beach we took the San Gabrial river trail just a couple of miles up to see how it looks. I guess it goes all the way to the San Gabrial. Some day I'll have to see. 2 1/2 hours-48miles.
