Re: What happens on a Roll over

Well, YEAH!

There is a club in town, the Inland Jeep Freeks, that makes at least one
trip out each month. Some trips are day trips, and some are over-nighters.

I am near Cal Oaks and Clinton Keith. The hills above Clinton Keith have
some cool trails -- take Nutmeg and go up the hill.

The Cleveland National Forest is close by, you can get there through La
Cresta.

Los Coyotes Indian Reservation is the really good spot to go wheeling, but
it is about an hour south of Temecula.

Re: What happens on a Roll over

Technically, that's Hiway 79 South, Hiway 78 East. The shorter way is Hiway
79 South, Hiway S2 South, Hiway 78 East. Even shorter is Hiway 79 South,
Hiway S2 South, Hiway S22 South through Borrego Springs to Hiway 78 East.

But, there is plenty of wheeling in the Temecula Valley that he was asking
about.

Re: What happens on a Roll over

Tell me about it, you may easily see where we jump off of 79 and
start up the fire trail. It beckons.
