briones












huge and steep hills without big cliffs offer irresistible off trail riding. video

fast lines (4 | 4)

endless miles of this






heading down to the ocean, a 3000ft descent across 9 miles. as good as it gets. too busy smiling to take many photos






hello there










elephant seals and a return to the rain.
(the next day we grinded out the 40 miles remaining to the san luis amtrak in the rain, my camera stayed in the bag).

coast road (3 | 4)

woke up with our friends Ty and Raya, whose paths crossed ours waiting to sneak through a rockslide closure on hwy1. they were touring to wherever they pleased and loving it.


trail back to the highway








we parted ways and alex and i started up naciemiento-furgesson to get back to the endless dirt




ventana range


it was really good


really






good


played music on rusting tractors | blood on the drumskin






first milky way of the year
