Yesterday former student Dale Raymond, navigator Jeff Allen, and I rode from Grand Terrace, homebase, over Pigeon Pass Road, then down the telephone pole access road on the Moreno Valley side  yesterday. It was a clear day and a challenging ride. For the first time in years, we let Centi, Sailor, and Sunny go flat out...on a safe surface and slight incline. Not what I would do every time! We were ALL huffiing and puffing. We saw over 50 burros back there, with the yearling males being shoo-ed off by herd stallions. What a noisy bunch they all are.
