anybody from socal going up north to ride the wild boar enduro @ clear creek. i rode the recent quicksilver at the same location but conditions were hellish (approx. 1 ft. of snow in the campground in the morning, all of which melted off and became thick churned up mud by my minute) anyway, hoping for better conditions for the boar.

i didn't even make the first loop. I houred out with many other b and c riders on a single track that bottled necked with what seemed twenty riders deep. several areas in this area required the help of two other riders to get bikes over larger slick rocks or tree roots.
My son and I may not make it now as my pickup has a cracked head - is in the shop awaiting part$. The mechanic said next Saturday is a push at best.
We are so disappointed. We might be able to come up in my wife's car as long as camp is not difficult to reach, that's if she's okay with that (doubt she would be though - that's why I have a pickup to begin with.)

the photos are great! many of them i think are from the single track from hell(loop 1) that i houred out on. instant exhaustion from just looking at them. sure looking forwart to boar, especially since it seems conditions are going to be very similar. look me up if you're there, i have a white chev. tahoe with a blue easy up set up next to it.
Here is a site to check the weather.

Check the D36 web site Friday afternoon.
As of today the event is still on. It will depend on how much rain CC gets today, and tomorrow. If it gets more than a .5", it could be cancelled. There is no rain date. The Piglet and Boar will have independent decisions as to whether they run.

Lemoore NAS? No way my friend; by the time the weather front gets there it's been sucked dry by the CC mountains.
For the most current status may I suggest you call the CCMA hotline: 831-630-5060 or http://www.blm.gov/ca/hollister/Clear_Creek/ccma-status.htm

Spoke to BLM just a bit ago. Clear Creek is planning on 1-2 inches of snow tonight. It has been raining on and off all morning long. BLM says everyone is calling for the same info (whether Clear Creek is open), and they will not update the hotline right away, because the decision to close will affect quite a few people, and the weather will determine alot in the next 5-6hours.

The inquiry was made on behalf of a friend, who based on his expressed needs, was recommended to seek out a used European, purpose built 125 enduro. I am well versed about the bike and shared their pros/cons with him. It wasn't until recently that I recalled some "local" on these forums who had one. The WR/EXC models are as rare as hens teeth out here. In any event, I will forward your number to him. He voiced his interest some time ago, but it wasn't until I posted the original inquiry that I recalled your owning one. I live in Eagle Rock, but he lives a bit farther out towards the "909" region of the world.
