Jonesin for a Ride!

Archive for the ‘2010-05-07 Saddleback Ride’ Category

Saddleback Mountain is called that because when view from the San Juan Valley area, the two mountains there with the dip between them looks like a saddle for a horse.  This mountain in the Cleveland National Forest is right in OC’s back yard and is a gem to vist and to get away from it all, even though “all”is just right below you.

Here is todays ride profile:

 And here is the Google Earth Track –May 5th Saddle Back Ride – if you have Google Earth installed on your machine and you click on the above link, it will launch GE and show the path.

Uhmm, pics didn’t upload for that post, but here they are. On top of Saddleback I’m just feet from every known cell tower n I don’t have a signal!! I bet I’m cooking up here though…

I’m off the mountain and having a cold one at Hell’s Kitchen. Nice sign 🙂

Is always harder on the bike. Got to be carefull u don’t grab 2 much front brake and rake a spill. Continuing down Main Divide Rd towards Ortega Highway.
I’ll post a Google Earth route when I get home…
