Battery charged? heated gear? Meet at Chevron 8995 Los Posadas Dr at 10:30, Monday Dec. 26th. This is an up and back to Gerlach up Surprise Valley road for lunch at Brunos. Potential for option to complete the loop going east of the lake into Nixon after lunch…depending on interest, conditions, etc. Plan for low temps ranging high 30’s to mid 40’s. In normal trail conditions, this is a C+ / B- rating and big bike friendly. Pavement to start then long haul on gravel, loose in some sections. Unknown status of mud, slush, snow or gate closure. It’s 220 miles RT if my google maps is correct.
