Small goatheads for 20+miles, rocky/rutted. Some of my favorite views in the LP. Great climbs, watch out for PoodleDog bush. 0 water along route.

Great Scenery, not technically difficult, but there were several short climbs that we needed to walk up. More of a gravel ride. 24mi — 5h 30m

Dropping into the 'horse trough' about halfway up Gridley. This shady spot is a good place to rest and regroup before the switchbacks start.

Cistern overlook where the fire road meets Camino Cielo. Trail continues to the right where the paved road turns to dirt again and is a steep hike-a-bike up.
