Just above Springville...the redwoods and secret lakes loom

[bmweerman]

One of the most visually stunning rides we've been on lately was not far from Bakerspatch...Springville, Ca. and the "Mighty 190" lay just an hours ride away.

 

 

Make sure you stop here for a latte.

 

 

Turn Left at The Barn...(Balch Park Road) for a little twisty fun.

 

 

And then not so much fun

 

 

"Slow down for the cute cow," she said. That freakin' cute cow charged us. Fortunately the oilhead is faster than the bovine!

 

 

But then you get to see stuff like this.

 

 

And this

 

 

And More

 

That's just little taste...it's great ride. But dang that is a lOOOOONNNGG 26 miles on the ol' clutch hand.

Not too bad, 190 to Ponderosa is very nice also. I have a place up there.

Thanks for sharing. Been on those roads many times with some riding buddies. The most recent being the middle of June. It is a very nice playground you have in your backyard.
