Cloudcroft – any riders here?

Yes to the burritos,  but please folks, do not bring me 48 eggs.  I’m bringing everything needed for about 20 burritos.  That should do it for saturday.  Sunday it makes sense for people to leave for home, and stop for breakfast on the way.

I just can’t find the space in my fridge, for 4 dozen additional eggs.

Yeah, lots of closed roads. 5000 buck fine if you get caught on one. That’s nationwide.  I ride closed roads before 8 am. The florestas meet at the hq  at 8, plan the day, etc. Rarely see them, or anybody else out there before 8 am.

Some roads have gates, if left open, I take it they could give a shit if you are in there, except elk calving season. These roads are open to bicycles, horses, etc. Just no motors.

Good route plan. That part from sunspot to weed is not graded, but it’s easy. No rock staircases, just some of it never maintained.

To getting sunspot you have to ride the paved highway, but it’s a favorite!

Yes you will pass the sunspot observatory either on the way to, or the way back from the west side road. Unless you go  by way of weed.

A really good map of roads legal to ride in the forest is the interactive visitor map. Shows all forest roads nation wide.

The easy road to weed is near timberon, FR 460, connecting to a well graded county road in weed.

Most definitely up for some bdr. Haven’t rode west side road (fr90) yet this year. Its been hot and dry that low most of the summer, but it rained some on it last week.

All the really easy dirt roads like russia canyon, penasco canyon, etc are looking nice this year. Lots of rain recently up by alamo peak and sunspot, so its not all dry and hot on top this year, as it was last year.
