Nov 24/2018 ...... ok we made it to the top of the mountain!
The ride is a twisting mountainside road. Signs warning of no vehicles over a certain length and warnings of having chains for snow. Today was a beautiful day, we are ok. No snow here yet but it is coming by Dec 1.
Julian is a pretty little old mining town with many B&B's, restaurants who are renowned for Julian Apple Pie, craft shops, and historic old buildings. It was crowded today as the town is lighting the Christmas tree at 4:30 tonight. Just dusk. We will be long gone by then. We slowly made our way into the main street, got parked and walked the street looking for that Apple Pie!
Tummy full we decided to take the same route in reverse back to Indio. It is such a great bike ride. It was definitely 15 degrees cooler up there. We warmed back up as we came back down into Borrego Springs. You need to have your leathers with you in the mountain ranges. It can be so deceiving.
