June 22 Wentworth Springs Ride
Went riding today to check out how the cabin held up to the winter. Usually we're in during April. Still can't get to the cabin in a truck, but luckily we had four quads with us. Wentworth Springs Road has lots of water and it was very hot today. It's always fun to be the first through the water, spin a u-turn, and head back at high speed throwing a wake over the other riders. I soaked my Father in Law. He returned the favor with a wave to my back when I was not looking.
Lots of snow melt!
A ride re-group:
Oh, pretty...
Are you kidding me? A rattlesnake in the snow?!

Holy crap! Nice looking country, but rattlers on the snow? Yikes!
I've still yet to see a rattlesnake up here other than a whole mess of them up above Downieville by Saddleback Mtn Lookout. I guess I've just been lucky.

Re: June 22 Wentworth Springs Ride
I still like riding quads. I just can't justify keeping one around to use a couple of times a year. It helps to have relatives that I can bum off of.EigerMike wrote:awesome joe! you just cant leave them quads alone can you! dam snakes!!!!!!
I have been riding lots of dirt and backroads on my motorcycles. I rode from Sacto to Yosemite last week. Can't do that on a quad or a Rzr XP. Legally anyway

You have a cabin on Wentworth Springs road?

Re: June 22 Wentworth Springs Ride
Technically not on WSR, but about 1 mile from where WSR turns east and goes from pavement to dirt.
I would be open to discussions regarding a weekend stay in return for a weekend with a RZR XP. Know anybody with one?
