Supporting Member betoney Posted May 18, 2019 Supporting Member Share Posted May 18, 2019 @micah2074 - it looks like you have great riding right outside your doorstep. This is a fun route nearby - Independence Valley / Spirit Lake Highway 2 ***2015 Candy Red FJ-09*** Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nicksta43 Posted May 18, 2019 Share Posted May 18, 2019 That's a beautiful area, I used to live in Knoxville and I've worked all over that area. Being out here in the land of flat straight roads doesn't lend itself to quick fun rides. There is some fun rides to be had but I'm riding for hours to get to it. I'll try to put something together later on. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mid-morning on a weekday, there is almost zero traffic - including authorities... and I ride it accordingly! 😎 1 ***2015 Candy Red FJ-09*** Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bamarider Posted May 27, 2019 Share Posted May 27, 2019 @micah2074, I need to try your route sometime. I always turn on the Reliance rd to do that loop. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tight, curvy, and beautiful... like my wife. 1 Let’s go Brandon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We will be taking the detour at Mokelumne Hill out to West Point and back to Jackson. Our plan is to start at Lake Tahoe and ride Monitor Pass and Sonora Pass, I'm hoping they have the snow cleared by mid-June. ***2015 Candy Red FJ-09*** Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our plan is to start at Lake Tahoe and ride Monitor Pass and Sonora Pass, I'm hoping they have the snow cleared by mid-June. Not sure how much snow was dumped in the last week or so. Crazy weather for us in May. Two of my favorite roads have been snowed in for a while. Wentworth Springs Rd and Emigrant Trail. Last time I rode 26 it was closed between Mokelumne Hill and West Point. Some type of road work maybe a bridge. That was a month or so ago. Mokelumne Hill down to Valley Springs is a nice 15 mile or so stretch and then cross over Pardee and Comanche and back up 88 to 49. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a good experience and pretty fun IMO. Edit: Now that I think about it, I'm pretty sure I've told you that 7 times now. 1 '15 FJ09 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
