By the second half of the month long trip everyone had become accustomed to the RV life. Living off fast food and microwave meals, navigating over bikes and bags when waking up and using a toilet with a missing door was all part of this. We headed from San Francisco to Tehachapi for Cory Nastazio's Yard via the Post office jumps in Aptos.

Roll-in

 Just for the record, the only people who call California "Cali" aren't from here.

Ridiculous riding, though.

 Just for the record they are not from "Cali" they are from the UK, so that fits your strong code on who can call where what just fine...

 Not a big deal...just one of those things. Every place with a lot of visitors can relate to those funny little quirks.

 It's like people visiting San Fransisco and calling it "San Fran". Always rubs my fur the wrong way.

 Or worse, "Frisco".

 Looks like a sick trip. I don't know about messing with random folks when you're in another country. I would love to be there when the goons storm their camper.

 I know this is kicking a beehive but California isn't exactly a trails mecca. Google Catty woods, Posh, Solame, Eastside trails and you'll see what I mean.

 Yes, and I'm sure the foreign dude knows so much about this. I'm from California, and there are plenty of trails everywhere. To the point where within a year, i went from no dirty experience to crushing dh and dj and xc with quite exceptional skill and relatively very low saddle time. So of say there are more than enough trials to harbor any tutor of rider from anywhere. Not only that, but plenty of venues to support events that are internationally anticipated-sea otter-and parks for dh, endoro, xc, and super d.
