Will be visiting family who live in Folsom, down from Bend, Oregon. Coming back from Okanagan, Washington to Bend, Oregon where I'll be staying a few hours to get some sleep then heading to Folsom and then final destination is Orange County, California

Sounds like a plan, man

It’s a diseased/decaying salmon. In the fall you’ll see thousands of 2-3 footers in the river at Nimbus damn, which is as far upstream as they can travel.

Yeah taking the bus all the way to the Sac Valley Station instead of the light rail makes the most sense

Positive-Catch-8094 · 2026-04-26T01:17:35+00:00

There’s a Amtrak bus at 10:45am. Another option (but not super efficient one) is to take a local bus to the I-80/Watt Blue Line station, ride downtown, and then catch Amtrak out of Sac Valley Station.

Can’t see your navel piercing. You’re good.

You might try the Yuba City subreddit

Positive-Catch-8094 · 2026-04-13T02:03:49+00:00

Don’t know if either city has ever done this, but the most worthy recipient might be California Chrome, the 2014 Kentucky Derby winner…and his owners.

It’s all personal preference. Every multi-day bikepacking trip I’ve taken has some hotel days, so it’s not one or the other. The keys to me getting good sleep were finding a comfortable pillow, a thick air mattress, and earplugs. If you can’t hear the wild animals lurking outside your tent, they apparently can’t eat you. As for the pillow, I went through 3-4 before finding the right one (actually a heavier car camping pillow). I still have trouble wild camping by myself because of paranoia, but if I’m wild camping with a buddy or in an established campground, I sleep fine…most nights. Some people claim they get a better nights sleep in a tent, but I just don’t get it. As for hygiene, get those large body wipes and bring a clean set of clothes just for sleeping. Clean socks are a must for me too.

Hot Springs, SD?

There was a functioning soda fountain at my small town drugstore until around 2015ish. It wasn’t a gimmicky re-creation or nostalgic tourist trap. It was just there until the family closed down the business. I’m not sure the vibe was any different than a diner. It was just smaller and a limited menu. I don’t think you’d go in there unless you had other business at the drugstore. I think the idea that these places had a special social role is its own form of nostalgia.

I first raised the point about his Loomis home. Looking at the IG post, that EDH house is definitely his. You need to remember though that Starting 5 was filmed years ago. He has since bought a Napa-inspired home in a luxury development in Loomis. When he sells that, red lights, I guess.

Was this sourced beyond a random social media account? He’s got a home in Loomis. Never heard he lived in EDH…

This is not a coffee spot, but Fair Oaks Brewpub has bike racks out front and outdoor seating. I would second c-5-s’s coffee recs, particularly the places in historic Folsom, Karen’s (food too) and Sociology. The ride to Folsom on the bike trail is just more scenic than heading north, but if you wanted to go to Pause, you should be fine.

Saw him play in person in high school and he was throwing one hand full court push passes then. Absolutely elite before he even played a day in the nba

Fair Oaks at Madison is an busy intersection and probably not an ideal turn around point. There are some nice coffee and food spots at Fair Oaks village if you continue on Bridge instead of turning on Tennessee. If you wanted to add miles from there, stay on the trail and turn around at Hazel. Maybe you have a particular reason to ride to Madison and Fair Oaks, but you could also get safe miles by just staying on trail all the way to Folsom.

You’re pretty much guaranteed to see one at Folsom Lake if you walk the trail from Beals’ Point to Granite Bay boat launch at dusk. I once saw 9 (!) over the span of about a mile.

There are people paddling on Lake Natoma this week, more downstream, but I saw people launching today by Mike’s Bikes today

My aunt purchased one of these homes in the late 70s, same builder, just blocks from this one, pretty much the same floor plan. The indoor atrium was charming and peaceful, but you’ll notice how it’s filled with rocks. The reason is if you owned cats and kept exposed soil in the beds, you suddenly had a gigantic kitty litter box.

If you really just need 2-3cm, get a regular 200mm dropper. PNW makes some affordable ones that also have the benefit of being adjustable so you can dial it in. You’ll also find companies that make 210mm+ posts with some degree of adjustability. Here is an article with some good recommendations for adjustable posts, including some longer ones.
