It's supposed to be the policy of California parks with hiker-biker sites not to turn away bikers. I used to think that was the policy for all California campgrounds, but I was sent away from Steep Ravine after I unwisely showed up with no reservation. On Sun, Aug 3, 2014 at 5:00 PM, Roger wrote

I've bike camped at Taylor several times and have always been told by other cyclists that no cyclist is turned away. One time, the biker paddock was filled when another group of cyclists showed up. The rangers led them away, but I don't really know if it was to another site or out of the park.

Thinking Samuel Taylor on Sept 20th or 27th for one night out for anyone interested in joining (Dan, Roger, anyone else). Those that have been there can chime in if I'm wrong, but sounds like the hiker/biker site is first come? If so can I be safe in assuming a spot if showing up mid-afternoon on a

My sleeping bag is my down jacket, pants, and booties. Works down to about 20˚F. Also, strapping things on top of the saddle sack works really well. That's where my hatchet, tent, and sleeping pad (cut down to core only size for summer) go. That's on a large rather than medium: https://www.flic
