San Diego Randonneurs ride the Rainbow Prelude. 200K/123mi. Starting at Doyle Park near UTC, ride northward and get hit with 6000' of climbing. Including Del Dios Hwy., San Elijo Road, Old Castle Rd., tough short Couser Canyon Rd. and Rice Canyon up to Rainbow. Then ride over to Fallbrook, and downhills through Bonsall. Take the San Luis River Bike Path to the Ocean.
Follow the classic Coast Hwy. 101 Southward, passing super surfin' beaches. The last longish climb is up Torrey Pines before you return to Doyle Park.
Lots of hilly rural country riding here, mixed in with a little city and beach cruising too!
At basic Rando pace, it's a 8-9 hr. route.
