I've corresponded with Jim Warren a bit about this, but while I will be back in the U.S., this has collided with our vacation/anniversary trip to Mendocino/SF/points north over the next three weeks. Have a ball, and I will root for So Cal., as while I enjoy many friendships and miles to the north of the Monterey Co. line, I despise those Giants. Go, A's, though.

[RBW] Re: So.Cal Vs Nor.Cal Rumble ?
Two options that we can muse over: 1. I snake off a site for Friday night on the first come first save lottery. I'll be in Arroyo Grande Thursday night that's maybe 20 miles away. I can easily get there by late AM on Friday. 2. Plan B (if El Chorro is full on Friday) would be hiker-biker at El Morro SP for Friday night only. If driving, you could drive into the park (I've got a pass so we'd need to coordinate), dump your stuff, go out find a parking spot in town (pretty easy I think) ride in. No, I won't set up your tent while you're gone :-). Then move over to El Chorro on Sat. So far we've got Evan, Hugh, Manny Doug. Manny, if you get a couple of comprades, I suggest calling Paul Lee @ 805-781-5930, ext 4, and reserve a 2nd campsite. It's only $25 per night plus a $9 booking fee. I don't have a feel for the size of the campsites but IME 6 tents is about max. I've slept thru earthquakes, trains, generators, etc, but YMMV when it comes to proximity to other campers. dougP On Monday, July 8, 2013 4:03:45 PM UTC-7, hsmitham wrote: Doug, I plan on coming up on Friday, riding on the Sunday ride and returning to Los Angeles that evening.

[RBW] Re: So.Cal Vs Nor.Cal Rumble ?
pam hopefully someone can suggest a riv-ish option, but for non-rivish there are a ton of shops which will rent you a hybrid bike in the city, it runs about $20-30 a day. a lesser known secret is that if you stay at a kimpton hotel, they have bikes you can checkout for free. i've stayed at the harbor court (public bikes, but only 2-3 so you have to get one early in the morning), i've also stayed at the drake, which does not have any bikes on-site but if you talk to the concierge they will give you a coupon for a free rental from a place around the corner. of course if you're not staying in a hotel this would not apply :) On Saturday, July 6, 2013 12:32:14 PM UTC-4, pam wrote: This is OT but I'm planning a trip to San Fran and would like to rent a bike.

I work at Cuesta College, half-way between SLO and Morro Bay. It also happens to be directly across Highway 1 from El Chorro campground. I ride to work most days and the campus is right at the Marine curtain between inland and coast influences. From my house in SLO 8 miles away I can never predict what the weather will be close to campus. It's a nice mix of sunny 6:30 mornings or maybe misting fog. This morning it was foggy all the way to the coast. yesterday it was sunny though foggy on the coast. Summer is foggy most days in Morro Bay. I like the fog for a few miles but once I get wet and start to cool I appreciate sunshine. Your chances are good that you will see fog most of the day and night at Morro Strand campground. You're likely to see sun sometime in the morning at El Chorro. Chance are you'll see sun even sooner in SLO. We just hired a new web programmer from Hanford who camped at El Chorro last week. He said they have lots of primitive campsites that are first-come-first-served, no reservations. He added that the $1 in quarters gets you 10 minutes of hot shower water.It's a county park staffed by county rangers who close up about 5pm. IF the Hostel were still an alternative I'll try to think of a place you might be able to store bikes for the night but none come immediately to mind. The Hostel is about 200 feet down a small hill from the train station. Doug, bike parking appears to be in a rack along the Hostel driveway entrance. I'll try to stop by after work and ask about bike parking and maybe take pictures. If you're planning on riding toward the coast I'd recommend gloves, wool, and some sort of beanie. There is much to do for everyone but little time ;) Cheers, Mitch On Tue, Jun 18, 2013 at 10:41 AM, Manuel Acosta manueljo...@hotmail.com wrote: Seems like we are having trouble with camping grounds.

I don't know how big of a group we are having but if I'm sure we can get a head count. I try not to over think this things.

Re: [RBW] Re: So.Cal Vs Nor.Cal Rumble ?
I assume the hostel can accommodate an equal number of women. The unknown is bicycle security. Bicycles are not allowed inside the building. They claim to have an area outside that is safe. Maybe one of our SLO riders could have a look give a comment? Address is 1617 Santa Rosa, a short walk from the train station. The hostel is an interesting option, especially for those only spending the weekend, and especially if your train arrives after dark or you want to catch an early AM return train. It's definitely worth consideration. dougP On Monday, June 17, 2013 7:55:22 PM UTC-7, cyclot...@gmail.com wrote: FYI, the hostel had room for eight in the male dorm last I checked.

Re: [RBW] Re: So.Cal Vs Nor.Cal Rumble ?
I like the hostel option, but don't know anything about this one. If it's in town (yet not next to the rail line) that seems like a plus (Firestone, Firestone, Firestone...). If there's any interest in that, maybe we can find out if they can offer a group discount even. Although $25 a night aint too bad.

I believe most campgrounds will be in demand with limited reservations, if any, with maybe some first come first served spots. El Chorro says on their website that arriving in the middle toward end of the week is the best chance. I wouldn't count on camp ground hopping but then again you might get lucky. Another thought is checking Craigslist and maybe getting a rental for a few days, if you have enough people this may be economically workable. As you know there are many distances / possibilities. Out to the coast and back could be anywhere from 30-40 miles. looping through Morro Bay to Los Osos / estuary up over Turri Road to Los Osos Valley Road (LOVR) back toward SLO up O'Connor way through Camp San Luis / Cuesta College would be manageable for many. As mentioned my post that didn't post I am a daily work commuter. 16 miles round trip from SLO to Cuesta College and errands / shopping on weekends puts me at a comfortable 90+ miles a week. I don't do much long distance on the weekends so I don't know many of the local courses but there's something for everyone.

I will be coming down from SF, late on Friday night. My vote is for a cooler windswept beach. I think the strand is reasonably close to the Taco Temple.

I live local and have been attempting to post but posts are automatically deleting. Jim is trying to help but nothing obvious is going on. So. This is a test post. Mike there aren't any stores very close to any of the discussed camp sites. El Chorro stores are about 4 miles next to CalPoly and the intersection of Foothill and Santa Rosa (Highway 1). Albertsons grocery, Starbucks, Panda Express, Pita Pit, Carl's, BBQ etc. I should note there's one small hill that takes about 2 minutes at 24t + 32t gearing between the campsite and town. I think your biggest concern will be nailing down a reservation in the popular tourist area.

[RBW] Re: So.Cal Vs Nor.Cal Rumble ?
Have a look at these routes: http://mountainbikeslocounty.com/ One of the great features of this area is a lot of back roads that are lightly traveled and go thru scenic areas. While there's plenty of interesting un-paved stuff to choose from, even the paved bits getting there are pretty nice. The suggestion of Old Stagecoach up to Towers is excellent. This is the ridgeline between Oso Valley and the valley where Paso Atascadero are. One possible return is down Poly Canyon into the university. I continued on the ridgeline to Hwy 41 on to Morro Bay. This requires crossing a not-for-the-faint-of-heart rock slide (David, you ARE doing this!). Total loop is roughly 40 odd miles, give or take. I've done See Cyn from both sides suggest coming from the Avila Beach end. The climb is more shaded more interesting, and you do the dirt on the way up. Toward the end it ramps up steeply just before the summit, so you sort of pop out on top and have this amazing view of Morro Rock to one side and the Oso Valley to the other. You then get to enjoy a screaming downhill on pavement with decent sitelines, etc. Mitch's comments have encountered some interweb interference, so if they don't pop up shortly I'll just copy paste them, with appropriate attribution of course. You can't beat local knowledge. dougP On Monday, June 10, 2013 8:06:18 PM UTC-7, Mike Schiller wrote: Mitch from SLO ( Atlantis owner) emailed me some info about El Chorro County park, which is on the road between SLO and Morro Bay.

i live in SLO. all stated above are great ideas. another suggestion for the camping would be biddle co park. i believe there is camping there. it isnt too inland (not incredibly hot). it is out edna valley area so therefor it is close to the train station and it is an absolutely beautiful bike ride. there is also camping very near by at lopez lake.

There are several Rivs in town though I'm most familiar with the Atlantis crowd (me, George, and Hank). For perspective I'm mostly a work / commuter rider. I ride 16 miles RT from SLO to Cuesta College (halfway between SLO and Morro Bay) most days and shopping / get around on weekends. This gives me the 90+ miles / week I enjoy. I should mention that the coast can be very over cast in summers and that the prevailing wind is Nortwest and can be real work in the afternoons. One other camp ground option is El Chorro Regional Park http://www.slocountyparks.com/activities/el_chorro.htm This is 7 miles from the train station / town and at the edge of the marine influence. There is also a Hostel a block from the train station but I've never stayed there though it's been a going enterprise for years. http://www.hostelobispo.com/ In an earlier post some mentioned our weather. I should comment that it's fairly unique in that SLO is a Mediterranean climate mostly in the mid 70's - low 80's in the summer. Contrast this with 15 miles away up the Cuesta Grade on the other side of the Santa Lucia range the temperature is generally in the 90's to low 100's consistently in the summer. A 30 degree difference is those few miles is common and makes biking in the Paso Robles area much less comfortable. This is also the beginning of tourist season. The town empties of students and fills with visitors though it's mostly confined to the downtown core. I imagine there's a premium on hotel rooms and camping spots. Although it's not likely I'll be joining you on rides, minor surgery in the works, I'm happy to share what I know.

Hi Oren, Seems like they are a little closer from the train station than Morro Bay and the Edna Valley is a very nice place to ride. .But does Biddle allow camping? All I see is day use.

Mitch from SLO ( Atlantis owner) emailed me some info about El Chorro County park, which is on the road between SLO and Morro Bay. There is camping there and they have showers. http://www.slocounty.ca.gov/Page11103.aspx This looks like another option. I don't know if there are any food options nearby, so not optimal, but could work. Still looking for routes. Like to have some backcountry roads with some dirt thrown in. The See Canyon/Prefuma rd has a fairly long climb with a dirt section. http://www.lkjh.org/bike/california/slo/see/index.html ~mike -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups RBW Owners Bunch group.

As I recall, there are a couple of restaurants in San Simeon, but it's not a very big town. Hearst Castle is amazing to visit if you've never been there. I've camped at San Simeon, Oceano and Morro Bay; as I recall, Morro Bay was the nicest. I also recall once, a long long time ago, riding north from Morro Bay up Big Sur. Beautiful, but very very strong headwinds. That was in the spring; the summer has smaller winds I think. On Sat, Jun 8, 2013 at 12:16 PM, dougP dougpn...@cox.net wrote: Looks like we've got an event!

Re: [RBW] Re: So.Cal Vs Nor.Cal Rumble ?
If we want to reserve a regular site we are too late to get a good campground with showers. The best ones...Morro Bay and Pismo SP's are booked that weekend. Morro Strand is open but no showers or and few trees for shade. San Simeon has only the primitive section open ( no showers) . We could do the hiker/biker sites for the train travelers but that wouldn't work for those that drive there. The best of the leftovers to me is Morro Strand SP. Flush toilets, closer to a decent size town, and not to far from the train station in SLO. any other ideas? The Motel 6's ( two of them) are 5 miles south of SLO and charge $106/n. The south one is better BTW. ~mike On Saturday, June 8, 2013 1:36:04 PM UTC-7, Anne Paulson wrote: As I recall, there are a couple of restaurants in San Simeon, but it's not a very big town.

Re: [RBW] Re: So.Cal Vs Nor.Cal Rumble ?
I'd be good with the Southern Sierra on Manny's date. Just wondering though is it worth a 4 hour drive 8 hour RT for two days? Shall we make it at least three? Or would that cause a drop off in participation? Mike since you know the area let's talk route. I imagine we would have have a meet up spot, then ride to a base camp with a next day Rumble. Just throwing it out there perhaps Meet at Shaver lake and ride to Huntington Lake 22 miles for camping then the next day ride out perhaps toward Kaiser peak on some of those graded dirt roads? Or meet at Huntington Lake and ride the 24 miles toward Florence Lake? Let me know what you think? If this firms up I'll look for a USGS map of the area.

[RBW] Re: So.Cal Vs Nor.Cal Rumble ?
Hugh, The road from Shaver to Huntington has a lot more traffic. The best roads are up to Kaiser Pass and then to either Edison lake or Florence lake. Even though it's only ~27 miles one way to each, there is a lot of climbing and the downhills are slow due to the narrow winding roads. I don't know if the consensus is day rides from a base camp or an overnight to one of the lakes? A round-trip to one of the lakes would be like 50+ miles and 5000+' of climbing. Obviously the s24o would be 1/2 of that. There is a nice cafe and store at Edison near the campground and showers. There is also a day 3 option to go around Kaiser Peak and stay at a more primitive campsite off of Stump springs rd. This is one of the rare places you can ride deep into the Sierras on your bike but you have to work for it. SLO would be a lot gentler riding and access by train. also that weekend works good for me. ~mike -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups RBW Owners Bunch group.

Re: [RBW] Re: So.Cal Vs Nor.Cal Rumble ?
The Sierra option means either a drive or a hot slog across the valley. OTH, once there, the altitude means cooler temps. Mike is correct about the temps around Paso Robles / Templeton / Atascadero area being hot. There is a serious range of hills east of SLO that makes that valley a lot warmer than the coast. San Simeon / Cayucos / Moro Bay can be considerably cooler. As Manny pointed out, the date is the key, then we worry about the destination. And once I'm north of LA, I'll spend longer than a weekend. dougP On Friday, June 7, 2013 12:44:06 PM UTC-7, Anne Paulson wrote: I like the idea of access by train or bike.

[RBW] Re: So.Cal Vs Nor.Cal Rumble ?
I was up there last summer for a backpacking trip out of Florence lake and thought that the roads would be perfect for a fat tired bike tour. We could do day rides from Huntington or even a tour to Vermilion Resort. http://www.edisonlake.com/ The roads to Florence and Edsion lakes are the most remote in the Sierra's. The roads are paved now but past Kaiser Pass they look like someone just paved a dirt road with out grading. It's a 4 hr drive from LA or SF so a three day weekend would allow for 2 days of riding. The is good riding also in the Alta Sierra Range west of Lake Isabella. Better in Sept maybe. One could ride up to the old logging mill in Johnsondale and then up towards Alta Sierra on narrow paved roads through pine forests. ~mike -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups RBW Owners Bunch group.

[RBW] Re: So.Cal Vs Nor.Cal Rumble ?
We'd picked July with the 12th, 19th 26th open. I need to contact the park to see if they've got any large groups scheduled. Now is a good time to do so as I expect any large group would need to plan well in advance. OTH, if the stars align for an out of town adventure with the NorCal group that would be preferable. People have more flexibility in summer so I think the turnout would be better. Those elevations are definitely for summer time too. I don't know any of those areas so it would be new turf, which is always welcome. dougP On Thursday, June 6, 2013 10:53:37 AM UTC-7, hsmitham wrote: Mike that's an interesting idea, I was recently thinking about a short tour/camping in the Southern Sierra.

Re: [RBW] Re: So.Cal Vs Nor.Cal Rumble ?
Let's shoot for a SoCal, NorCal adventure in July and the S240 @ El Morro on any of the open weekends. Just my two cents worth. ~Hugh Hugh Sunland, Ca On Thu, Jun 6, 2013 at 4:40 PM, dougP dougpn...@cox.net wrote: We'd picked July with the 12th, 19th 26th open.

Re: [RBW] Re: So.Cal Vs Nor.Cal Rumble ?
Agree. How does Mike's suggestion sound to the Northern Californians? Looks to be due east of Monterey Bay. dougP On Thursday, June 6, 2013 8:57:08 PM UTC-7, hsmitham wrote: Let's shoot for a SoCal, NorCal adventure in July and the S240 @ El Morro on any of the open weekends.

San Luis Obispo is central to lots of great cycling, and is accessible to all. It's generally considered mid-way between LA San Francisco. If this is unknown territory for some, all the better! Camping? San Simeon, Morro Bay, Montana de Oro. Plenty of lodging choices plus tons of good coffee places in SLO itself as well as outlying areas. In Templeton is the Bike Lane Inn, a small BB run by a couple who have been touring for decades and have an inventory of routes around the area. Manny, this is the best idea you've had, and you get some pretty interesting ones! I like it a lot. dougP On Tuesday, June 4, 2013 10:53:02 PM UTC-7, Manuel Acosta wrote: Damn Andy and his rumbling shenanigans now there needs to be a rumble in Cal.

Re: [RBW] Re: So.Cal Vs Nor.Cal Rumble ?
Sounds like a very enticing idea. Hopefully I'm going to be available when it's scheduled. I'm off on the first half of July...

The Central Coast has some nice rides for sure. Except Paso and Templeton get really hot in summer... like 100 degrees. How about somewhere like Huntington Lake. There are some nice backcounty roads up there including Kaiser Pass. The roads into Edison and Florence lake are remote, single lane and above 7000 ft. There are campgrounds and hotels around Huntington. There is quite a bit of climbing to Kaiser pass which is at 9184 ft. ~mike -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups RBW Owners Bunch group.
