I'd like to start earlier just in case I take too long to get there. When I
checked the route someone posted, it was 12 miles of climbing. Depending on
how much pushing/walking I need to do, I'd still want to get there before
it's dark. I don't have much experience setting up camp.

I don't know if we've reached the maximum of 8 for the campsite I reserved.
It would be good to do a roll call and keep count. I'm sure we can easily
reserve another campsite if needed or even do it on the spot. I don't think
they fill out.

Back from a 10 day bike tour in Colorado, where I discovered there isn't
much air at 12,000 feet. I should be ready to climb Diablo. I'll be there to

I will reserve one campground that will take up to 8 people. From what I
gathered online, you have to have a reservation but it's for any open spot.
I guess that as long as there are open spots, you can always show up and pay
at the park but like you, I'd like to know that I'm assured of a spot bef

Checking in from the high sierra.
This is a ride where you get the freedom to choose how to get up there. If
some want to take roads, others want to take dirt, great. Juniper is just
shy of 3000 feet. I tend to ride up on the roads, and take dirt back down
from around the junction. Just because I

Yeah, my map is just the paved road up. I'd be inclined to go up on
dirt, though. Unfortunately I can't commit quite yet though I am happy
to provide support where possible.

Will our ride be all on pavement as Joe's map shows or will it be on dirt
trails? I see a dirt Juniper trail on the map taking off from the North Gate
Road. I thought this was going to be a dirt road ride, don't know why I made
that assumption. I've never been to Mt. Diablo.

I'd love to join the group in September for a guided S240 so I can learn
from the experts! Unfortunately, with my travel schedule, I'm only available
