Don't know about group rides - but was stationed at Camp Pendleton for quite a while in the 1980s - rode all over the place! Excellent rides up Mount Palomar, out to the desert and also behind Fallbrook on De Luz road... Wonderful twisty little road... It'll bring a smile to any motorcyclist's face!

Julian is another nice destination for a bike ride... There's some great stuff around San Diego - and of course a guy just can't ignore the coast highway!

Regards, Guy

T100 - How often do they ride? Anything closer to downtown?

Here is a link to the North County RAT Pack's new blog that was just started.

I've only been on one ride with them, but it was great.

They didn't have rides over the Winter, but I think they are going to get started again in April with a ride on the last weekend of each month.

I don't know of any groups closer to you. I live in Point Loma and would love to have a group centered in San Diego.

I'm from Riverside but was working down in SD last month.

Don and I rode up to Julian, cool, clear wonderful ride on a bike.

Message me if you want to hook up for a ride, I'm willing to ride down.

I think Rocket Motorcycles in SD still has a Rat Pack. Lance runs it. They're off Morena Blvd just east of the 5.

I drove through Julian after the fires 4 years ago in my Toyota Supra and it was BAD, so much destruction.

Today ( duh 4 years later ) nature heals itself! It's looking great! There's still obvious signs that there was a bad firestorm but nature has its ways of growing over and healing her landscape.

Don and I had a great run! A bit chilly at the top but extremely fun none-the-less.
