    Too far out to decide now, but if I don't wheel the weekend before or after, I'll try. Is there dispersed camping near there?

    Yes there is dispersed camping. I'll be doing that next week with my sons. Also a little pew-pew! IMG_2362.jpg

    I wish! Can’t bring this low rider on the trails yet! Settin aside some(many) pennies for a little elevation and some actual tread, then I’ll be happy to make the drive down to join you fellas in the future. You can hold me to it!

    No need for lifts here! Come on out and bring the truck. This trail is good for low riders too :D

    What? Prerunning like a responsible adult. :oops:. We are lucky to have you! :bowdown:
    I do trust this standard of measurement.
    :curls:
    :drunk:THIS could be the first official Nor/So CA Tundras.com meet-up.
    We would love for you to join us! (You bring Joon (and any other BASTRD's or hangers-on); we'll provide lattes and bacon).
    I know @BestGen's picked this route specifically to accomodate my BFT's shoulders and hips, so I feel obliged to give it a go!

    I really appreciate his commitment to pre-run the route, and trust that he'll tell/ warn us about potential damage, even if it's "just" a high likelihood of pin-striping. (He knows there's a bunch of pansies in this club.) We can all make final assessments based on that. As of now, if I get to attend, I'll be driving the BFT!
    I wanna chime in here, but I see Paul told you already; we'll love to hang out with you on this easy romp if change your mind!
    Don't you still?!!:D

    Anyway, th suspension on that looks like it'd clear most obstacles, as long as they're well spaced. I vote 'yes'. :thumbsup:

    Yes, I understand that's ridiculous. I just got back from Oakhurst; that was almost 900 overall, almost all of it boring. :bored: Probably better to save it for "real" dirt.

    That's a small price to pay to meet a bonafide movie star and his Delorean. :D
