Here is a description with a corresponding map for three rides we did during the trip. If you would like the GPX tracks for these rides, just add a comment. Benton Crossing An easy, great ride heading north out of Bishop on first Fish Slough road and then through Chidago Canyon which is a must […]
We spent a fair bit of time in the Owens Valley, tucked in between the Sierra mountains in the west, and the White and Inyo mountains to the east, it’s a beautiful place with all sorts of recreation, easy to accessible rides, a ton of history, flora, and oh, the views.

We are in Southern California on a wee adventure.
