Hi guys! Your proposed trip sounds great. We live in Ridgecrest, CA (three hours north of LA) in the high desert. There are a lot of dirt roads right outside our door, and we would really like for you to come up and see us sometime. Approximately 3 miles east of us is BLM's Spangler Hills off highway vehicle area with over 57,000 acres of open public land is available where you can ride anywhere your skill and machine can take you. Sound great doesn't it! As an added bonus to a trip up to see us, we are into the Live Steam hobby (trains). We have 5,000 feet of 7 1/2 inch gage railroad track on our four acres. This March 28-30 we will have our annual Spring Meet (usually 15-20 locomotives are running). These trains are large enough to ride upon. We also have a pot luck dinner which you are certainly invited to (that way you can brag about your Deuce to all those railroad buffs as I do!). You can visit our website at www1.iwvisp.com/lpruitt to check us out. Hope to see you sometime. If not in March we have a Fall Meet the last weekend of September. Linda
