San Emigdio Mountains, aka Forest Highway 58

While I was riding through the Hwy. 33; without destination,
I saw couple of bikers were on the small county road intersctions.
Just curious if they have some problem, stop and chat with them.
They were just resting, and waiting a rider who is having test ride of a bike from other riders.
Seniors, very energetic, and kind people, told me that this country back road is the Biker's Road.
As I don't have any specific road to ride at that time, I decided to ride this.
They showed me the map on which this road end with Interstate 5 which I could take to back home.
And told me that there are some thick fog up above mountain....
I thanked them, and start my bike...burum..bu...bu...


The road; Foreset Highway 58; starts at the north of Hwy. 33 and end at the Fraizer which connects with Interstate 5.
I strongly recommend this road if you haven't tried yet.
But I think that good seasons for the bike riding are Spring to Summer.
There were "Chain Required" road signs.
It's little chilly on the mountain, I got some liners and termal >> still felt cold.
Be prepared with winter glove..

Amaizing sceneries, easy roads, good road conditions (even though there were some gravels)...
Top of the mountain, I got some dense thick Fog (I think that it was cloud hung above the mountain).
I enjoyed a lot, and had some level of chemical processing when I was passing the foggy road.. ha ha ha

Here are the 90% of road video coverage... (about 30-40 min. and there are no part to be boared)
As the weather was little overcasted and light conditon wasn't correct for the video, there are some dark sceneries at the clips.
However, good part of the clips are clear to enjoy.

As Video Clips are little long..
Here are the some short details that you can choose from to see.

A:
Started here >> Hwy. 33 and Forest Highway 58
Nice easy road, long and low degree to climb up to the mounain.

B: >>> Fog Action
FOG riding Starts about at 3:00 till end of the clip.
My cameray battery went out at the end, but I got an extra bettry which is the first time I used for.

C: >>> Really good sceneries..
From clip C to E, you may see some beautiful seneries.
It's only an hour riding from Los Angeles... ha ha ha

D:
Some good scenic road riding..

E: Uploaded....
