ICE RIDING

SO CAL RIDE DAY

 

So Cal Ride Day

By Uncle Ed Paulsen

This is the way we roll britches! Sure am glad I moved back to sunny CA. This snow was actually pretty fun for the first five miles or so. Once it got a little deeper and the trail incline a little steeper it was game over. The sadistic trail boss just kept pushing on and on. I had to walk along side the bike for the last mile or so because I just could not get any momentum up. We started at about 3000 feet at Lake Isabella, rode all single track up to the snowline about 4500 feet, this picture was taken on a fire road going up to about 7000 feet in the Sequoia national forest. The ride back down the mountain was on a single track trail called “As good as it gets” and I honestly could not add to that description. Snow, icy rocks, freezing streams and all, it truly was as good as it gets. Epic ride!

(This picture is not of me. Wish it was, but I am pretty sure by the time we hit this snow depth I was already doing the Fred Flintstone-outrigger-1st gear-Oh please-dear god let this snow lighten up-I want to die now-mode!)
