Spanish Butta Trail

For those of you in the know there was a ride out to the Butta last saturday.
Riders attended Frank"the cool guy", Roshan "I may pedal slow but I won't give up", Oscar "the resident Beaner", and myself.
Started at 6:30 and it was Fing cold luckily this expedition started on a 5 mile climb. Felt mega good on the climb, body was so responsive to whatever I wanted to do. Peaked it out and searched for a sun spot while a waited for the group.
So we started the downhill to Live Oaks. All I can say is "WEEEEEEEEEEEE".
Spring is flowing strong. No apples on the tree but that is not why we were there.
Started the Jedi trail and boy was it overgrown once it stopped me in my tracks and I could of won any trackstand contest against anyone, vines were wrapped like an octopus sucked to the bike and me minus the suction.
So we made it to the Butta and you know what there was no Butta. Looks like they didn't make it back this year. So back we went. Man can Oscar cry the whole way back was "I can't believe there was no Butta".
So my mind started working............I need to ride some more and I planted the seed with Frank&Roshan maybe we should ride a lil Idie.
So by the time we got back to my house and my lovely wife had Potato bisque and fresh homemade pretzels "Thanks Hun". The boys were pumped up for a ride and it was there idea to leave from the house.
I was stoked but inside I was wondering how long there legs would last.
So worked our way down to the Arts center and crossed over to May Valley. Frank forgot about the climb to May Valley and Roshan was cursing him for once and not me. So we rode Sunset, logpile, 1st bro, Tea cup, exfoliator, and coyote run. There wasn't any more pep in there legs so Yumi got the call at Lake Hemet market.
Ended up being a good day of ridin' with great peeps.

RIDE ONE LONG
