Don't let me rain on the parade here - it's a fun ride, much scenery. I would simply space things out a little more myself and the really dusty part is just from Graniteville Rd. down to Washington. Don't miss out on being able to ride on Forest Road 41 around Pinoli Peak - great vistas and fun running.

To get to this view, turn off the road at the spur located at
N39° 30.415' W120° 39.760'
Go to the end and big log landing and climb the small point.

Eventually, one way or the other, there's the pot at the end of the rainbow...

What the... what are those two quads doing on the pavement down there at the end????

Welp, I won't be making it to this ride. The moron on eBay that sold me the front storage box for my XP required signature confirmation. So, after waiting three days before shipping it, then UPS rescheduling delivery from yesterday (when I was home) to today, it won't be coming in time for the trip. And I'm tired of riding without proper storage. It's bad enough that my winch won't show til next week either.

So basically, I'm done riding until all my stuff is here and installed. And I'm refusing delivery on the box tomorrow when it shows up and the bastard better give me a full refund including shipping or he's getting negative feedback.

Rob,

This is an easy ride...no gas, no food (we eat the hotel)...only something to drink is required.

Just to give you an idea. We'll leave around 10am...and be back around 2-3pm.

I actually feel sorry for the person who sold you the box to be honest. Accept the box - you ordered it!. If in the future you have specific delivery requirements / quirks let the seller know. Take all your special tools, toys,processed food items,board games,water wings and whatever else you deem necessary to ride, place them in a duffel bag bungee it down and go ride.

Apparently Rob needs to bring a pop-up trailer with a toilet to haul behind is quad in case he needs to take a dump as well. Dude - you are holding a lot of pent up anger for nothing.

You ordered the part, box, douche what ever. The guy sending it has every right to request a sig to verify YOU got it and not just randomly dropped at your door step to have someone yank it.

I recently had a laptop delivered. I sincerely hope they would have requested a sig.

So pull that thong out of you *** and man up...

All of the rides from camp can be done on a half tank and if you have to capacity to carry a water bottle I think your covered. I'm sure someone can carry your pierre if needed..

You guys are cracking me up!!

Washington - north of Oregon and south of Canada - LMFAO!!!

Yeah Rob, what the hell?? Just because the guy is trying to protect himself from asswipes on the 'net you're going to refuse delivery?? OK, that makes no sense whatsoever. And you're not going to ride because you have no place to store your hair brush and makeup?? That's lame.

We may make the Saturday ride, but will meet at the intersection (not to be confused with WEBBER Lake - fuckin Ken) and go on to Washington.

We weren't lost, we knew exactly where we were and where we were going. Not my fault Ken can't remember the name of the frigging lakes up there. Weaver - Webber, yeah, they're similar sounding but they are MILES apart. Retard.
