Mr.BlueSky Posted June 10, 2022 Report Share Posted June 10, 2022 These are some roads I've always meant to get down and do - sadly this falls on the weekend Theresa and I will be relocating to Nebraska for a few months. Take good pictures so I can live vicariously ; ). PaulD and erinw.rrc 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How exciting! Mr.BlueSky and PaulD 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
erinw.rrc Posted June 10, 2022 Report Share Posted June 10, 2022 Jared and I are planning on doing this one... probably just a day trip though because of the dogs. PaulD 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
erinw.rrc Posted June 10, 2022 Report Share Posted June 10, 2022 Also, will there be meeting point in Big Sur? We're already in Santa Cruz county so would be coming from HWY 1 side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know - I won't miss that part... but I will get the hotted part of Nebraska summers plus humidity! 🤣 Yeah heading back likely until late to mid September. We'll leave as two and come back as three. We are pretty excited ; ). We should be back just in time for the Annual Event and Mario's Lost Coast MOrG . PaulD, SDS and erinw.rrc 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CRYA Posted June 11, 2022 Report Share Posted June 11, 2022 (edited) I’m hoping to make this one! But coming from North Bay it can be tough. Any chance there’s a route in .gpx in case we miss the 8 am rally? Edited June 11, 2022 by CRYA Mr.BlueSky, PaulD and El Chapomint 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Motobrewer Posted June 14, 2022 Report Share Posted June 14, 2022 8am! Glad we are meeting at Starbucks, I’ll definitely need more coffee. Mr.BlueSky and El Chapomint 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SLOHybrid Posted June 14, 2022 Report Share Posted June 14, 2022 I know Mario plans to recce this the end of the month but as of now Nacimiento Ferguson rd is closed and will not be open for @ least a year as it is being fully re-done.

El Chapomint Posted June 15, 2022 Author Report Share Posted June 15, 2022 Ok folks! Seeing as Big Sur is almost completely closed AGAIN this year, I want to throw out a few options for other places to go. Sorry, I know its a bit short notice but please vote on the below potential alternative options. I still want to try and make Big Sur happen but I think it is good to have a back up if its just not doable. Option 1. Hollister Hills - An oldie but goodie Option 2. Corral Hollow - Tried and true Option 3. Big Sur - down hwy 1 for the day and potentially camp I'm able to find a good spot Thanks again!

SDS Posted June 15, 2022 Report Share Posted June 15, 2022 (edited) In order of preference: Corral Hollow (that would be awesome) Hollister Big Sur Edited June 15, 2022 by SDS El Chapomint 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
erinw.rrc Posted June 16, 2022 Report Share Posted June 16, 2022 Hollister for me... it's closer for us South Bay/Santa Cruz peoples. But whatever has the most votes obviously. 😀 El Chapomint 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elherbinator Posted June 17, 2022 Report Share Posted June 17, 2022 I’m going to try to get the RRC trail and road worthy. If I do, I’d prefer Corral Hollow. I do not like Hollister. drafdog, PaulD and El Chapomint 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drafdog Posted June 23, 2022 Report Share Posted June 23, 2022 (edited) Oliver: I should be able to make it and hope to bring the D2 if I can get out of work on the 9th (will go late on the 8th and head out early on the 10th) My dad won't be able to so only 1 vehicle this time My first choice would be Big sur, and second be Corral Hollow, and unfortunately have been to Hollister quite frequently making it #3 Edit: (Oliver) I got the time off of work and would like to change my #1 to Corral Hollow as I can now do a weekend trip rather than a day trip. I plan on taking Amelia and possibly a friend or 2. Edited June 26, 2022 by drafdog new information! El Chapomint and SDS 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
El Chapomint Posted June 24, 2022 Author Report Share Posted June 24, 2022 Thanks for everyones feedback and patience! I will have a for sure answer on where we will be headed on monday. SDS, CRYA and PaulD 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobertDingli Posted June 25, 2022 Report Share Posted June 25, 2022 Corral Hollow would be my preference. I’ve been every year in summer, and sometime winter, for the last five years and was hoping to go again in July. The sunsets over the mountains never get old. Here’s some teasers for anyone who hasn’t been there.NCLR trip 2021Look close and you will see the campsite in the distance CRYA, PaulD, SDS and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
El Chapomint Posted June 28, 2022 Author Report Share Posted June 28, 2022 *TRIP UPDATE* We will finally be going down to Big Sur! Unfortunately it won't be Prewitt ridge specifically but I did find a pretty good alternative spot that is easy enough for any stock truck. And don't worry @RobertDingli the sunsets are still pretty great. Let's still meet at the original Starbucks in Gilroy (6865 Camino Arroyo, Gilroy, CA 95020) at 8:00AM. If anyone wants to meet us in Monterey we can meet at the Chevron in Carmel (3645 Rio Rd, Carmel-By-The-Sea, CA 93923) around 9:30. Will plan stop and see Mcway Falls, an iconic Big Sur landmark as well as have lunch while we're there. It is a CA state park so don't forget to bring $10 cash. The only other thing to remember to bring is bug spray! Looking forward to see everyone there! SDS, PaulD, yokrieger and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SLOHybrid Posted June 28, 2022 Report Share Posted June 28, 2022 So Mario is this now a day trip to Julia Pfeiffer. when did they change it to Mcway falls PaulD 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
El Chapomint Posted June 28, 2022 Author Report Share Posted June 28, 2022 Sorry if that was confusing...it can be a day trip if you want it to be but otherwise we will be camping over night. Mcway falls is just a stop on the way down to the camp spot. PaulD and yokrieger 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaulD Posted June 28, 2022 Report Share Posted June 28, 2022 K. So can you provide a basic itinerary? Where are we camping? Us SLO folks will be coming up from the South to meet you somewhere... --Paul SDS 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Motobrewer Posted June 29, 2022 Report Share Posted June 29, 2022 Since this is a one-nighter, I will probably bring more beer than I need. If I could get a headcount by Thursday (7-July) of next week, I can be sure I bring more than enough. If there are preferences, this is what should be available: Bo Pils Red Lager Gold IPA Red IPA Oatmeal Stout Belgian Tripel Pre-Prohibition Lager Cheers, Paul yokrieger, PaulD and SDS 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaulD Posted June 29, 2022 Report Share Posted June 29, 2022 ^ I'm in for a 4-pak of Gold IPA please...! It'll match my truck --) --Paul El Chapomint 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Motobrewer Posted June 30, 2022 Report Share Posted June 30, 2022 And now I am in the fence as to if I am able to attend. Wife just got from a business trip with a positive. I am going to assume that I w milk be dealing with it next weekend. still get your beer orders in. I will arrange for a pickup or something before next weekend. cheers Paul El Chapomint and PaulD 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
