Run for the Border: San Diego beginner dirt ride near Mexico

3/1/2012

0 Comments

 
San Diego has a great network of dirt roads not far from the urban center. Some of our favorites are the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) land out near Ocatillo, the sandy dunes of Glamis, CA, and the dirt roads off of the country curvies in the Julian area off the Sunrise Highway.

Recently, though, we found a new network of easy, fire-road wide back roads along the US/Mexico border off of the Tecate main road just off of the 94 freeway. You can ride along the border wall (shown behind me, or alongside me in the photos in this post) on little-traveled dirt roads where the only others you tend to see are Border Patrol trucks and rabbits.

It was a great beginner ride. The best part is that at any point, you can turn off and ride into one of the many towns that border this area, and can even stop at the nearby railroad museum or countless diners.

Below is a photo of the massive lunch we had at one of these diners; perfect chili and a huge club sandwich in Campo.

Going from street to dirt then back to street is a nice reminder about why we got dual sports in the first place -- to enjoy the best of both!
