OK Jdog, I'll meet your ride in Isabella from the Central Coast on April 8th. It will be an overnight campout for me!

Think about a meet-up (ETA) time?

I believe there is a Texaco in Lake Isabella. I can meet you there (with some others?). :assassin:

I'm in for this one... We could go up the Old Kern River Rd and sneak around the south side of the lake up to Kernville... Just an idea...

 

[ridingtherockies]

Sounds like fun guys, I'll try to make it, but I have a lot of work ahead of me.

Because today I signed the long awaited contract from my company.

I'M MOVING TO COLORADO SPRINGS :yahoo: (any nice roads out there)??

Sorry I can't make that ride date on the 7th.........but you will find Mc Nally's

a major league steak house just out of Kernville and good margaritas too.

They really know how to cook steaks. Save room for this place.

Here are the times and pick up stops on the way to the Lake

Okay. For your info, for the Isabella ride we will have a pick up at

the Fillmore Burger King at 9:40 and a pick up at the Shell station at

the 5 and Parker Rd. exit at about 10:05 am. We will eat somewhere in

Kernville like last time.

Last time I was there was about 2 years ago. Should be a good trip. The steak House is just North of Kernville. Cross the Bridge eastbound then take the road north about 1/4mile. It is on the left side and overhangs on the river. Huge Steaks! Be careful in the parking lot, it is very sloped and in poor condition.

I rode 155 east bound over Sherman Pass last weekend and it is extremely ugly..... miles and miles and miles on white sand stockpiled on the side of the road and it's all over the lanes. It's a first gear crawl, a lot of the time you have to drive in the oncoming lane as it's thick in your lane. There must be hundreds of dump truck loads along the side of the road. I've no idea what it is for. Over the top of Sherman is more sand dumped on the road to combat the snow and ice from a few weeks ago. Avoid 155 at all costs !

I'll be heading out to Death Valley from Bakersfield -> 178 ->155 ->Kernville->178 this weekend. Is the 155 section here ok or should I avoid it?

(I'm not sure where Sherman Pass is and where exactly did you see sands)

Thank you very much.

Mikerider,

I just got back from Death Valley Feb 8-10th. A little 4WD ride through

Titus Canyon and we drove out on Hwy 190 to Olancha and 395 to Mohave.

It's looking real frosty up on the Sierras. I think I would wait on Sherman Pass Rd.

for a little while longer. I don't see it marked as Hwy 155 on my Garmin City Select.

You've got to keep on you toes even when it's dry.

Serious wind down around Mohave and Tehachapi, although it will be on your

back going East.

Death Valley road conditions nearly perfect. Have fun.
