Count me in for Sunday.
830 sully is the default for saturday. not 100% sure about sunday. we can talk about it on the saturday ride 
i'll try to do sully with u fools, but im a slow climber.
and im still doing wilson.

Where is the trailhead for sully? MTBR says where Havenhurst and Mulholland there's a dirt lot. I'm looking on Google Maps and Havenhurst turns into Calneva and that intersect Mulholland.
Any tips on getting to the lot? I'm thinking getting off at Mulholland on the 405 and taking that West to Calneva. But this is int he middle of a neighborhood.

Word.
Get off Sunset from the 405 and head west.
(R) Mandeville
(L) Westridge (First stop sign)
(L) Bayliss
drive a little bit up and you'll see cars w/ racks parked on the st.
dont go to the dirt lot, unless you want hell climb after you enjoy your downhill. climbing canyon isnt bad depending on traffic.
You guys should ride up to the lot at the top of Westridge and down first crack.
Wish I could join you.

how rocky is Wilson? can i ride my hardtail?
For sure, there is a bit of loose rocks towards the end but you would have a blast on a HT.
but would you recommend a fully? or is it smooth enough for a HT?
i hear there is some climbage involved in the beginning, how bad is it?
i'm trying to decide which is best, as you tend to get more fatigued on a hardtail on longer DH runs, but the big rig is a pain to climb
I'd bring the fully. Wilson isn't crazy but are there are quite a few step downs and I think the fully will be more fun.
The climbing is easy. Nothing compared to the "loop".
i think i might rock the P
I would bring the squish, Wilson gets quite rocky in some places and it felt epic but last time I rode, J brought the HT and killed it (but that isnt saying much cuz he could bring the HT anywhere and slaughter it).
There is def less climbing than the loop, but it still isnt easy as there are quite a few hike a bike spots.

we'll see, still leaning toward HT.
I think most of Angeles Nation Forest is closed on Extreme fire warning..
From what i can gather. I don't know the actual area and actual trail names and road names for mt wilson since I havent been there, so i cant really make a educated question for the forest service.
