    Awesome ride! Those scenery must have been breath taking in person. The videos are a nice touch as well.

    Thumbs up! Thanks for sharing.

    Awesome... I'm so jealous. I only hiked in the Sierras (completed John Muir Trail, twice), never cycled, but I'll love to do some cycling around there. Next year maybe

    Thanks for sharing.

    Sequoia/Kings Canyon is a beautiful part of California. Just as beautiful as Yosemite, but with a fraction of the cars. Unfortunately, mountain bikes are mostly banned, but the hiking is fantastic and there are some good road bike routes.

    http://maps.nationalgeographic.com/topo/ ... however, I retyped the names of roads/passes in Adobe Photoshop because they were automated generated using vertical text orientation which I don't like... too hard to read and a waste of space.
