[RBW] Re: San Diego Bike Rental

2010-12-08 Thread IPATOM
Just returned from a bike and beer credit card tour in SD county.
Coastal route is always nice.  If you want a climb...Escondido or El
Cajon to Julian is epic.  There are lots of public transportation
options..amtrak...coaster...sprinter to get you to start point if time
is limited.  Train stations should have SD bike map.

2010-12-07 Thread Esteban
I'd use Joe's operation - he's a Riv rider and great all-around guy.

Ride to Velo Cult - they don't rent bikes, but they'll be happy to let
you use a Xtracycle to do errands.

For routes, I'd check out the San Diego Randonneurs Permanents --
especially some of the sections that wind through Rancho Santa Fe and
if you can get out to the mountains, you won't regret it one bit.

http://www.sandiegorandonneurs.com/permanents.html

The fire road (Nate Harrison Grade) up Mt. Palomar is pretty awesome.
Ride up and down the coast.  Enjoy!
