Thanks for the pictures Mark! Actually, the ride is known as "Slappy's Annual Big Bear Ride that Neil Stole Without Asking". But I think your version rolls off the toungue a little better.

Gerry (Slappy) reminded that this was our 6th straight year of the Big Bear Ride. Guess we're slow learners, eh?

Correction:

There was no BB ride in 2011. The year was a non-event for the rides up the Mtn.

In fact, the 2010 ride was to Lake Arrowhead, not Big Bear. Neil, remember the bee sting?

I found this photo kicking around on my CF card and on closer exam, saw that Johnny80s was trying his best on seeking out a running partner (djBill) up to Big Bear. What is your take on this?
