We will be exploring the Santa Ynez Valley, the Los Padres National Forest north of Santa Barbara, and points further north and east. Paved riding miles will be significant and scenic.

ADR 05/06 Comparison: This time we are upping the ante with the addition of a slightly narrow, winding climb, and some stream / dry streambed crossings that are a little more technical than those we have encountered previously. Further, the early afternoon will find us traversing a long and fairly remote unpaved section.

A dualsport brigade rides on its stomach; have a good breakfast! You’ll have the chance to top it off with genuine BMW Coffee From The Magic Silver Box By The TV when we meet at the shop. Lunch will be at a restaurant / deli in the Santa Ynez valley. Riders opting for a late afternoon refuel before heading home will be able to do that in Ojai. It’s a long, hard cattle-drive; bring snacks for between times.

Huzzah! Another best-laid plan "gang agley" yet survived all the same.
