Man John, you always write some epic ride stories, but this one takes the cake! :scream: I think I'll stay down here in SoCal where it's dry, or at least it only rains enough to increase the traction. I've only ever had one un-planned overnighter, and that was in a vehicle with a heater available, not a bike. (I spent the night stuck on Ballbuster trail at Big Bear in the Explorer once!)
I can't even imagine what that felt like, especially being wet, cold, and faced with such a long walk in riding gear. Just walking from the truck to my bike usually wears me out!:laugh: I'm looking forward to the next post about the rescue mission. Good luck! :yeehaw:
