            Great Erasmo and Diane, when you decide, reservations at the Mt. Laguna lodge and the tickets for the music fest need to be done by each individual. I was unable to get an group reservation, the lodge is pretty simple.

            This will not be StageCoach….. don’t get Daines hopes up!

              Karl,

              I thought this was the San Berdu camping? What music festival are you referring to?

                    Lisa and Rick are in for camping!

                    (And I’ll add this to the Ride List and also add the links between this forum and the Calendar)

                    P.S. I changed your calendar event and forum topic from “Sat 8/8” to “Sat 8/18”. Correct?

                        Oh Boy, I have to stop doing this late at night…..

                        Erasmo, yes this is the San Berdu trip…. with Diane coming I was thinking music. :0 Will you be camping?

                        Rick, thanks for the correction, yes date should be 8/18…. thanks for getting it on the ride list

                        Larry, Chuck and Mike P, thanks for the response.

                        Bring ideas for routes to the August meeting or email me. I have a few in mind but it will be a group “Adventure” for the off road riders!

                                          Karl – Where did you see that $111 price for the Northbay @ Arrowhead? I just checked and the website is showing me $175 for the night of 8/18.

                                            Cool Rob&Kellie, Brandon&Ivy, and Ron! The more the merrier. That makes it 18 people, 16 camping. Going to need final numbers by the club meeting in a few weeks to commit to food for dinner and bfast.
                                            .
                                            Ron, I got that price from a simple google search a few weeks back. Just did it again and see what you see. Sorry, nice looking place though.
                                            .

                                            Will be working on routes with Roady this weekend and pre-riding some of the off-road to see if the maps “easy” is appropriate! Going to get a little dirty this Saturday! 🙂

                                                      It’s supposed to be 32 miles away from the campground. But at least I know it’s clean and the AARP price is 139.40.
                                                      The hotels closer to the campground were more expensive and questionable on quality.
                                                      If you have a suggestion For something closer to the camp im open to it.

                                                        The hotel at north bay was 175.00, I just checked on trip advisor they have rooms for 166.00 now. It might be worth it? Maybe I should change

                                                            Ron just booked a queen room at deep creek hotel in running springs ca.

                                                            Not sure if it’s a better choice but it’s closer and cheaper

He does not tent-camp and did not find an acceptable local motel for this ride. I am riding with Mike Thursday possibly to Oceanside for lunch. You (and anyone reading this note) are welcome to join if you wish. just a short trip along the hopefully cooler coast – because we ride to eat!

We will be leaving from Sunland-Tujunga with Rick and Lisa C going over the 2 and up the backside of the mountains to Lake Gregory and on to Lake Arrowhead. We will be staying in a BnB about 10 minutes from the campsite. Good deals on AirBnb. A couple of really nice places for $80 to $90. Plan to join in on the evening festivities at the campsite.

                                                                                                    Let’s meet at Irv’s at 9:00 am for a pre ride meet and KSU around 9:20 on Sat morning. We will be riding the route discussed at the last club meeting, which is the 57 to the 210 to Angeles Crest. Up Hwy 2 to lunch in Wrightwood. From there ride over to Silverwood, up the 138 to Twin Peaks. Drop down Grass Valley Rd to Deer Lodge Park and catch the 173 to the campground.

                                                                                                    Sunday I’m thinking a later start around 10-11 for those interested and we’ll take Kuffell Canyon to Hwy 18, go around the backside of Big Bear Lake and drop down the 38 on the frontside to Mentone and the 10 home.

                                                                                                    I will upload GPS tracks in a day or two on here, so check back if interested in a route to upload. It sounds like we are going to have a pretty good size crew heading up, so we may want to break into two groups. I would ask those of you going to consider if you’d be willing to lead a 2nd group or ride sweep on either of the groups.

                                                                                                    We won’t be riding a ton of miles, but they will definitely be fun ones! Looking forward to riding and camping with all of you 👍🏻

                                                                                                          I didn’t realize that I needed to check in here and had updated my attendence on the ride list earlier this week.

                                                                                                          Is there still food & camping space available?

                                                                                                          If it’s full, that’s ok I can always find stuff to do.

Just wanted to make sure you have an accurate head count.

These are a guide with a guarantee we will deviate, intentionally or unintentionally! 🙂

                                                                                                                                Bring any physical maps you have, I will have a few, but it is every riders responsibility to navigate by GPS or map.
