Down and Up Again: Tunitas Creek Road


Kings Mountain Road winds up to Skyline Blvd and then Tunitas Creek Road zooms you downhill (my favorite part) until you get to the 1.  


My good friend



About  to head back inland




A band of misfits.  From this lovely landmark I busted my ass back up to Skyline Blvd and then back down to the start of the loop.  Bum bum sore for days.

Breakfast Sandwich: Bad Idea - Purisima Creek Road

I had no idea this beautiful place existed.  I do have a few warnings though, so read on.



I liked that this ride is like two loops, and X, or a figure 8.  You can make some choices on how you want to do it.


Coming downy he canyon was a blast- really fast.  There are all these rolls in the path that make it feel like a roller coaster.  But what goes down, must come back up (at least when you want to get back to your car). 


Check out this weird alien I met on the trail!


This is where you will find yourself right in the middle of the ride.



Check the vista.





This was the view on the way back up to the car.  The struggle was moderate at this point, and little did I know that upon entering back into the woods the day would become an all out battle to maintain possession of the breakfast sandwich I had eaten back in Half Moon Bay - a real challenge.

All in all it was a beautiful ride- the whole thing too about 3 hours.
