[@ramonvargas8018]

Another good ride dude, thanks for sharing 👌

[@JakeSpeakman]

Thanks Ramon! Great riding out in Novato 😎

[@thuggoe]

[@JakeSpeakman]

Noted!

[@sulsj]

Amazing. What route do I have to take to the parking lot after getting down on Goat Trail?

[@JakeSpeakman]

Thanks! Which parking lot are you talking about?

[@sulsj]

@@JakeSpeakman I mean your starting point. How can I get back to the starting of Ponti fire road after Goat Trail? Thanks!

[@JakeSpeakman]

@@sulsj Oh gotcha! I climbed/walked back up Goat Trail. You could also just take Luiz Fire road, extremely steep ether way. Good luck!

[@sulsj]

@@JakeSpeakman Got it. Thank you!

[@JakeSpeakman]

@@sulsj Have fun!!

[@Greenfuego]

Well, I won’t be doing the goat trail anytime soon 😂 but the rest of it is doable after I rehab my foot

[@JakeSpeakman]

Sounds good! I actually think Goat Trail is more of a blue than a black. Happy riding!

Nice video!!! Keep’em coming. I have a similar Hightower. Thinks it’s too much bike for that trail? I’m thinking I want to bring my trial bike.

[@JakeSpeakman]

Thanks Jeff! 🙏 Yeah, I love my Hightower! I would agree it's probably too much bike for those trails but it's all good. A shorter travel trail bike would rip on Ponti or Goat!

I'm loving the videos, Jake! Any chance you're on Strava? I'd love to give some of your routes a try.

[@JakeSpeakman]

Thanks Raja! I actually don't use Strava! I've been thinking about getting one though...I do use Trailforks however, shoot me a DM sometime and I'll send you my routes 👍

[@rajabisharat5149]

@@JakeSpeakman Will do! Thanks, Jake!

[@JakeSpeakman]

Right on! 👍
