This is day 1 of a two day Fall colors bike ride in the eastern Sierra Mountains. I’ll be staying in a motel for one night only Sunday Oct. 4th. You can stay additional nights and check out the Fall colors in the Mammoth and June Lakes areas if you want. For this ride we will be heading up Rock Creek Road following the creek as it flows through a forest of Quaking Aspens (Populus tremuloides): turning a brilliant golden-yellow in the fall.
Debra, Sally and I will be staying at the Bishop Elms Motel on thr 4th and checking out on the 5th.
