Rive spotting around ATT Park. I went to the SF Giants baseball game last night with a couple friends. We got to see the Giants win in walk-off fashion and still be eliminated from contention in the NL West. Fun game. I spotted two Rivendells. A Simple One with what looked like Jitensha

Okay, treading delicately off-topic... The road from Huntington to Kaiser is initially smooth and wide, then becomes extremely narrow and mosty-paved. By the top, you're dealing with sand and gravel. From there onto Florence or Edison, it's rough in many spots - but could be ridden on anything

Wonder if that pack was a product of the Backpacking catalog/company that inspired RBW's name? On Thu, Sep 5, 2013 at 11:49 PM, BSWP ashtab...@gmail.com wrote: Well, it wasn't like sighting Manny, but I was off backpacking last week, out of Florence Lake, and wearing my new blue-pocket MUSA

So Andrew, slightly off topic, but what do you think of the road to Florence lake for cycling? I've driven it a few times and the section past Huntington Lake seems like the ultimate road for a summer bike camping trip on a country bike. Maybe looping over to Edison and around the back of
