Sierra Mountains trip
« on: June 28, 2008, 07:32:36 PM »
Taking advantage of the good weather and getting above some of the smoke from the wildfires this past weekend. Great riding weather and lots of road work going on so this summer should be even better!  :2vrolijk_21:

Looks like you had a good ride.  I notice it was before all the fires.  Today is the first time I've saw the sun for five days.  The up side of all the smok......it kept the temperatures in the 80s and 90s instead of the triple digits this week.  But I'd really like to see them get the fires out so we can ride.

Everything here has ash all over it.

Great rides...Downieville was two weeks ago and Sierra City/Carson City areas was last weekend. You could really see the smoke in the hills coming back down on 88. Terrible wildfire situation.
