Another Spring 2014 Coe group ride…
We began by climbing the Jim Donnelly Trail. The
formerly banked Canary Turn is now flat:
I think those guys building the Soquel Demo Flow Trail stole it for their project.
What It Was Like Out There™
At the top of Jim Donnelly Trail (& Steer Ridge Road).
15 minutes later and the sun was out. Dew on Fiddlenecks was the only remaining evidence of the overcast and mist:
Chris and Tom cresting the steep pitch on Steer Ridge Road :
Paul & Chris had camped the night before and Chris couldn't sleep but she still managed to finish the ride!
At the top, we turned on to Serpentine Trail:

Wagon Road:
Our stop at Kelly Lake included filling in a little wash-out:
Kelly Cabin Canyon Trail was a lot of fun:
Map meeting at Cross Canyon Trail & Willow Ridge Road:
We decided on White Tank/Rose Dam » Pacheco Camp » Pacheco Falls.
Here's Tom finishing Rose Dam:
I was pretty happy with the results of Wednesday's brushing of the trail.
