head south on i-15 to lake elsinore or to perris lake. or make some friends that ride at canyon lake. otherwise, head north for about 6 hours to the delta.

| I would like to second jumalian. Start driving. When I was in LA I drove down to Elsinore or SD at least twice a month to ride. |

| You are forgetting Castaic Lake, Lake Piru, Lake Pyramid, Lake Puddingstone... All within 1 hour driving time from LA. |

Elsinore is only good until 10 on the weekends. I work during the week, so I cannot comment on those days.
The only time I have been to Piru, the wind was really bad. |

| All the lakes near LA (Castaic, Piru, Pyramid) get really windy and crowded on the weekends. |

ahhh nevermind I see the problem. It is pretty much a completely open lake, no coves or anything to hide from the other boaters and roaches. Lake Piru looks beautiful also.

| Piru isn't very pretty. Around LA, there really isn't anything. |

| Just north of San Bernadino in Hesperia is Silverwood Lake SRA. You might check that out. I've never been but it looks pretty cool. |
