Our New Years trip

The plan was to Setup camp at Cuddeback dry lake bed in the Mojave Desert. Since I was first to arrive out of the group I had to find a spot. We normally setup camp about 6 miles in off of RM34 - the original spot we hoped for was taken. We ended up down on the dry lake bed which I think was pretty nice, plus it was flat and level.

Camp, just 4 of us in this pic - Unfortunately One of our buddies had to cut his trip short and another decided to leave early this year.

Saturday -

The kids are always stoked!

Perfect sunset!
Sunday -

Early morning desert sunrise -
we did another Group ride this time to the abandoned boron federal prison and Astro Burger at the corner of HWY 58 and HWY 395

The crew about to cross the 395

Man so much good food - I know it’s Astro Burger but they have a Mexican food menu too and I am always a sucker for Mexican food.
I ordered the Chili Verde wet burrito , so delicious. After lunch I didn’t feel like riding back :) but the plan was to Stop off at the prison so off we go.


Me and my Daugter at the top of the prison, not sure what exactly this but it’s pretty massive. I’m guessing its for military?

Back at camp to enjoy an epic day
Monday

Monday morning the Kids were up early riding so we did a little bit of exploring


Cuddeback in the distance

We found this while out exploring, we shined our flash lights down
But we couldn’t see the bottom. We were going to send a GoPro down on a fishing rod but I didn’t have one in the trailer which I normally have stored in the TH.

Later that day we decided to make a trip up to Randsburg in the trucks for lunch - but all the kids decided they wanted to ride in instead so I decided to take them while my buddies and the wives drove.

Selfie break!

Leaving randsburg Hungry - the line at the general store was 3x longer than it was for Thanksgiving. Another epic day and now the battle to try and stay awake til’ midnight.

The wife’s NYE decor :)

Looooooong night ahead after a long day of riding. Me and
My buddy where the only ones to make it for the New Years.
