It’s late summer in Southern California and that means you need to start planning for Fall Rides. Information on two of the best are now available on the web.

 

One of the best Dual Sport rides in the country is the Orange County Dualie (www.dualies.com) BASS LAKE 250 Club Ride. It’s a club ride, you need to join the charity-driven club to ride the event, and it’s got limited entry, but it’s held in the Sierra National Forest and other lands skirting the Yosemite National Park. Scenic roads and trails would be an understatement, and the weather will be fall perfect the weekend of October 3^rd 2009. Land closures threaten a lot of areas and it’s possible that this could be the last ever BASS LAKE ride, so view the ride & entry flyer (http://dualies.com/OCD-2009_Bass_Lake_250_Entry_Flyer.pdf) and arrange to be part of history before you lose the chance.

 

If you’ve ever held a dirt bike handlebar in your hands it’s a sure bet you know who Malcolm Smith is. He portrayed himself, of course, in the iconic 70’s motorcycle documentary ON ANY SUNDAY (www.brucebrownfilms.com/sunday.htm). Armed with a wink and a smile, and riding skill that no one to date has ever matched; Malcolm really revels in seeing others enjoy the sport. On November 15^th, 2009, Malcolm, and the ride team from the famous SOBOBA Trail Rides (www.sobobarides.com) are putting on the “Ride the Mountain with Malcolm Smith Dual Sport & Adventure Ride”. Open to riders of all skill levels, on any size Dual Sport or Adventure bike, the event will allow riders to course through the same San Bernardino Mountain trails and road were Malcolm forged his great riding skills. To join Malcolm and the gang, download the ride & entry flyer (www.irs-media.net/sobobarides/id15.html ).
