7am meetup at Bonetti parking lot.
Developed water options are very limited. I plan to drink out of a few creeks.
Water at Capps Crossing campground. I recommend starting with an extra empty bottle or two. We will bulk hydrate at this first stop which will come early. It will also serve as a late refill spot.
Middle Fork Cosumnes Campground is dry. One could always beg for water from the Camp Host (like we did last time).
I stashed refreshments along 8N23.
The Hams station kitchen will be closed. Something about a County Health Inspector, blah, blah, blah. However the bar and market will be open, providing salty and sugary snacks, cold drinks and whiskey.
A short and medium loop can also be completed. Riders attempting the short or medium loop will not be the responsibility of the ride producer and should carry a map.
2! Nice work nocar. Really setting the bar with staged refreshies and that hand drawn map.
ReplyDeleteIs Booker letting you ride on Sunday?
DeleteNature's refrigerator. Nice work!
ReplyDeleteIndeed, I have to remark as to the awesomeness of the staged refreshments and organization of this LRP. While the hand drawn map leaves much to the unknown for the medium loop riders, I believe the short loop can be taken on with a great deal of confidence. An extended short loop with a bit of out and back added might be in the cards for a few of us, will confirm later.
ReplyDeleteI have an extra forest map that you can borrow. That will get you through the medium loop without trouble. And its definitely worth the extra effort -the rolling descent along the north fork Cosumnes to Capps Crossing is one of the funnest roads out there.
Delete3 and some.
ReplyDeletethe awesomeness of the effort here like OMG.
I also like the ratio of gatorade to beer in the liquid refreshments - perfect.
I heard "Out" from Fro, and "In for half day" from Newb on the backchannel.
