Went to ACH from LA today, foobar showed the way. Awesome ride and nice smooth pavement.

good pics.

as for your problem with firefox, I had that happen too at one point but I fixed it somehow.  Google it and I'm sure you'll find it.  Worst case scenario save your bookmarks and then uninstall and reinstall firefox.

For anyone else with the backspace problem. Triggered by gstwin preview-post feature. Disabled key binding here.

ACH is great, but like Pablo, I think I might be done riding street.... I've seen too many dumb things on the street this season.

no actually firefox has saved me.  it takes me several, 10 or so, minutes to get into a explorer page lately.  all other internet functions work fine, the only errors i get is mcaffee and explorer.  so i downloaded firefox and it is working fine

given the choice I'd do 33 over ACH any day...but 33 is almost an all day ride for me where I can do ACH in a morning...33 is my favorite road though, that and Cerro Noreste....mmm..

On Saturday I was humbled on the 33 riding with the people from the Pashnit forum. About 20 bikes of all sorts went up to the Ranger station in Lockwood and turned around there for the ride back down. Everyone rode really well, I didnt witness any fool hardiness, just efficient clean riding. I have alot of respect for experienced riders. THE PACE has really helped me and I think everyone should read it. Whether it is ACH or the 33 or wherever just ride clean and safe. OK everyone take care.
