An upside to all this rain…

My TT250 on Glendora Ridge Road last year…

And there is an upside or two, even though we’ve had flooding here in the Golden State, the rifle range has been closed due to the creek rising (really!), and the weather has not been conducive to riding.   Our reservoirs are being replenished (we’ve been in a severe drought condition for several years), and the flowers this Spring are going to be awesome.   That’s important to us for a couple of reasons:

• You may not know this, but Glendora Ridge Road is one of the premier wildflower locations in the United States.  During March and April, the colors positively explode up there.  With all the rain we’ve had, this Spring will be spectacular.
• Baja’s Vizcaino Desert will be awash in color during the CSC 3rd Annual Baja Run.   That ride is coming up (we are less than one month away).   Baja John is in Baja now, and he reports that the desert is very, very green.   It will be amazingly awash with desert flowers when we ride in March.  If you’re on the Baja ride and you don’t have a camera with a circular polarizer, you’ve still got time to fix that oversight!

I’m looking forward to the good times that are immediately ahead, folks!

It’s going to be a lot greener and there will an explosion of wildflowers when we’re in Baja next month!
