Re: Soft Road Ascent to Tehachapi- Comanche Point Road
Great Red Shark? Check.
We have to do this thing, and soon, no matter how pointless or self-destructive. You can turn your back on a person, but never turn your back on a D/S ride, especially when its waving a razor sharp hunting knife in your eye.

Re: Soft Road Ascent to Tehachapi- Comanche Point Road
Well Groucho, your report inspired me to investigate further. Ended up riding the entire Comanche Point Road on my FJR! It was a beautiful day with perfect temperatures. The FJR handled things pretty well going uphill. I suspect that the downhill run could be a real challenge!
     Saw two bulls with their horns locked. Later saw a small herd of elk up on the ridge.

Dood. You're hardcore.
Get a little sketchy for you between Gate 1 and Gate 2?

Re: Soft Road Ascent to Tehachapi- Comanche Point Road
Very nice report Bob, I really liked the way you blended the maps, narrative and pics. Your GSA is looking awesome, great loop, the CA green Spring window is now.
