Rough Riding South-Eastern San Diego County: Descanso - Boulder Creek - Lake Cuayamaca: Here's a video from a really excellent 42 mile loop we rode on November 21, 2008 out in south-eastern San Diego County. The 13 miles of dirt road on this loop is rideable on a road bike with 28mm tyres, IMHO, but we rode, and recommend, tyres wider than that for this route. Whatever bike you ride, this is simply a really nice ride to do. The dirt road section through Boulder Creek is superb, with wide, dramatic vistas, absolutely epic, long climbs, vast quantities of silence, and a true back-country feel. As with some of the other rides we've reported about here, if you pay attention, you'll spot some other dirt roads in the area; we plan to go back and investigate those, too.
