We did that last week on RD's R.A.T. ride.  My impression of Presodio is it is not a biker friendly place.  Also, keep your feet out of the tar (road is under construction).

Enjoy - It's a great ride!

Study Butte to Lajitas, is being resurfaced. Not machine asphalt! The compressed rock into tar kind. Be mindful of loose gravel. They've also widdened, and smoothed out some of the curves on the Presidio side.

I've done the beer can chicken thing before, never thought about beer can goat. I just happen to have a piece of pipe that will work for that kind of pit.

Apparently the entire goat family is drinking, but only papa can hold the bottle in his teeth, by himself.
Last year watched him down about 6 in 10 minutes. that damn goat must drink 30 bottle of beer a day.
