Ended up having to backtrack 9 miles in Lisle Canyon or some such when I got to "Sheep Trail" that was actually a trail for sheep. Had to suck it up and go up a good distance on the 15. Took me like 3.5 hours to go up and my neck and ass were not up for 3.5 more so I grew a pair and rode the 15 and the 91 all the way home. My dislike of traffic lights got me over my fear of the freeway.

Okay, going west on the 91, get off at Magnolia (which is the exit immediately after the interchange with the northbound 5). Turn right (north) on Magnolia and go under the northbound 5 interchange ramp and you'll come to Orangethorpe. There's a Taco Bell on the southeast corner of Magnolia and Orangethorpe for reference. Across Orangethorpe from the Taco Bell is a Burger King. Let's meet in the parking lot of BK. From there, it's an easy on-ramp to the northbound 5 just past Magnolia as we ride west on Orangethorpe. From there we can just cruise up to the 2 and north up to the east 210 for about 30 seconds and get off at the ACH/2 exit to start the official part of the ride. We can stop at the Shell station for gas and see if Busy is there. Anybody else who might meet us there, Alan is on a big black and chrome Stratoliner and I'm on a black Honda Nighthawk with a tailbag. Figure to be there around 8:30-ish.
