Sup peeps!

Got the 411 on this site from a few local riders at STR. As the title says, I live in Otay Ranch (San Diego) but find myself riding PQ trails more than anywhere else because I work in Sorrento Valley. Have been to Sycamore once and had a blast.

Looking for some help from San Diego locals on trails in the Southbay area. Specifically the East Chula Vista/ Otay area. I've heard about a singletrack loop that runs thru Bonita/Southwestern JC and Otay and another loop called the Home Depot trails but have also heard this route is pretty tricky if you've never been.

If anyone can show a slow, beginner around I'd appreciate it. For reference, my afterwork ride is the 11-12 mile PQ loop from Los Lobos to Powerlines, down thru Cobbles and back out to and up Los Lobos in a little over 1.5hrs


-Ron.

Haha...no worries. I was much faster on the 636 than the R1's anyway!
