California - Calistoga - Oat Hill Road - Great Basin Bicycles - Singletrack - Downhill - POV

How I spent my 51st bday yesterday! It was hike a bike up, but did 1/4 of the super rocky section decending. My guy friends did much more. I recommend it to anyone looking for a challenge and views. Unfortunately we were socked in with fog so that means we are returning this spring to enjoy again. Yes there was snow at the top. Watch for hikers at the lower levels. Don't forget the "Thank you bike" at the bottom!

how do you like that 575 for uphill and cross country riding?

Excellent job capturing the feel of this trail! It's one of my favorites because it's beautiful, little used and makes you think; you often have a choice of lines, one being scary-rocky and the other scary-slidey (loose rock). Nice music, but the soundtrack in my head (esp. descending) was more like "Psycho" or "Aliens"!

That brought back a lot of childhood memories. We use to spend half the day getting our bikes to the top of the hill. There use to be peices of old wagons down in the canyon below. We'd ride down as fast as we could occasionaly avoiding the grill of an oncoming 4X4. Then we'd stop at the old fruit stand at the bottom (it had a tree growing through the roof) to get a cold drink. Those were some good times growing up in Calistoga.
