The upper snake is So Cal's most common, the Southern Pacific. The reddish one below is one you only see in da OC or South as far as coastal regions are concerned. They are out in the desert as well. I've seen several in the Coachella Valley. That one is called the Red Diamond rattler. A real beauty!
If you moved those two chairs together, end to end, you could roll them.
There are several chairs. We could build a mini MTB playground.If you moved those two chairs together, end to end, you could roll them.
14 Double Black Diamond trails in one day, wow!
There comes an angle when you simply cannot use brakes, unless you wanna die. That, there, is a fine example.
BFR is another imo. Fortunately this happens so quick there's not enough time for something to go wrong.
Is there any other valid way to do it? Really?
That bike looks fun sitting still. I crack a smile every time I see a photo of it.
Better yet, every day.Aren’t all days?
FIFY.That bike looks fun sitting steel. I crack a smile every time I see a photo of it.
Fridays are good riding days?
I tend to follow conditions. Too much wind, too many people...I don’t need much excuse for a “rest day.”
Of course, "right conditions" meant my GPS showed 126 on the pavement above Sunset. 
Weekends in the San Gabes are an exercise in patience... I don't mind it- probably because I also get to ride it during the week when it's a lot less crowded. Weekday runs are for fun, flow, and PRs. Weekends are for practicing individual features and chilling as the conga lines pass. I'm in the minority on this one...
I imagine when the weather gets warm, there will be fewer people up there. When I did a Strawberry + Front Range solo ride in the right conditions, I had the whole 30 mile stretch to myself.
