San Diego off the 76.

After you finish with Pally take the 76 to the 79 to the 78 and go through Julian. Stay on the 78 and take Banner Grade Road (which may still be under construction). Either go through Borrego to Montezuma or turn around and head back. Enjoy.

i dont think you will be dissappointed

 

+1 on the disappointment.

But the year-round riding makes up for it.

 

yeah, i was down this weekend and was like ohh 70 degrees.......... could not stop thinking about the bike hahahahahah.

well ill be looking for people to ride with so pm me if you are interested

 

Fo'sho. Just PM us.

 

what part of socal are you moving to? My 600rr should be ready to ride within a week just need time to re-install my tank

 

I really like the Crest.

I think I've been on GMR, off of Foothill (210 fwy?). That had some good spots, but it was new to me, and I've only ridden it once, so I wan't comfortable.


I love the crest. However, I've heard CHP is in full force, and if you get tagged, they'll stick you for everything from exhaust to flushmounts.

What exit did you take off the 210? There are a few ways to get up to GMR...up Highway 39/Azusa Avenue is the Azusa side, where you have to go across East Fork to get to "GMR."

Thankfully it's also sunny early, so you can ride when it's still lukewarm.

So ive heard...haha

 

HWY 74 from Palm Desert to Anza/San Diego (you can stop at Temecula)
HWY 243 to Idyllwild which also dumps into the Hemet/Temecula area
HWY 18 - Big Bear/Crestline/Rim of the World
The infamous Ortega HWY.......
Joshua Tree Monument ride from Joshua Tree down to Indio...

that's just a few of some decent twisties....of course, it's always fun to jump on any of the freeways and hit the beaches of cali- Newport, La Jolla, Huntington-you get the idea!!!! Bump for socal riders

 

if you wanna ride in the canyons yeah go to crest youll love those curves just wath out for CHP but if you wanna go where everyone meets go to sunset and western off the 101 in hollywood on wednesdays night around 9 or 10pm youll see about 200 bikers there..
