My trusty '99 S-Works recently converted to an SS-Works in its natural habitat.

Welcome to the Pacific Northwest :)

Hmmm . . . maybe it's a stick and that's a finger bike.

I'm heading to the San Francisco area in June and I want to get out to see the big trees. I've always wanted to see the trees. Are they everywhere or is there a particular area I should be heading to?

Dang Phatt, that could have been a sweet log ride.What a shame.

That pic is a 3+ hour drive from SF. Mariposa Grove, Yosemite National Park. Home of some big sequoias.

Thanks for the tip. I was going to head out of the city north after a few days and probably stick to the coast or head to wine country. I just saw that Yosemite is due east. I'll see if I can come up with an itinerary that will have me go through the park. I love seeing big mountains and big trees. I've seen mountains. I now have to see the trees.

The redwoods along the northern coast are awesome. We are going camping there again when school gets out. Its only a 2 hour drive for us.

I could be wrong, but I think the redwoods are wider, but sequoias are taller.

What do you mean by northern coast? Where is that? You'll have to tell me town names or something. I'd like to go see both tall and wide trees. I've already told my daughters about the giant trees and I really want to make sure we get out to see them.

It's still a sweet log ride, just with a little gap to jump.

I'm an Arizona boy still getting used to these trees and the wet. The only logs I find myself on are used as bridges and I'm walking, like these two from the same ride.

dminor 04-12-07 11:24 PM

Mmmmm....log rides....

Nioce. Doesn't look like the log is ridable due to the railing.:(

The northern coast of California. The Redwood National Park. Here is a picture of our daughters in front of some smaller redwoods.

Since our dirtjumps are about a 25minute ride from my house I usually strap a shovel to this and bushwack my way out there.

Special mods include.

Custom front fascia (not shown)
Batman logo covering bad bondo job.
F-150 horn.
Stickers.
Ductaped stuff.
Hole cut in side so I can get a screwdriver in to adjust the idle.


YOUU MIGHT BE A REDNECK!
