About the same... 2000 jumps, but mostly belly... old dog here 😁 And (zero) BASE jumps -

My type of comment! Blue skies! (from a fellow skydiver) -
I know it's pretty south (near Pio Pico, Otay), but I'm willing to host. We could even do a short Otay ride afterwards.

Shameless plug, we have regular ADV classes. The next one is on June 14 in Campo, CA. https://www.socaloffroadschool.com/book-your-event/p/adv-sprsum-2025 Not only do you improve your skills, but you get to know other like-minded riders. -
I have one too

Super nice! Congrats! Is this for the track or you planning on trail riding too?

Also, shameless plug and disclaimer, I'm the owner of SoCal Off-road School. We offer ADV and Enduro classes. They are held on private property, and the trails are super fun. -

McCain is not easy, unless we are talking about main road only. Up north, Nate Harrison Road going up to Palomar Mountain is one of my favorites. If you are ok with sand, there are a couple of nice desert tracks near Borrego Springs and Anza-Borrego desert. Boulder Creek Road is also a great option, as Otay Mountain Truck Trail. Take a look at Old gpsKevin's website. It has a lot of stuff, and some still relevant for San Diego area https://sites.google.com/site/gpskevin/san-diego-county-adventure-motorcycle-gps-map -

Hey!! Nice to reconnect! Yes, that is definitely in the books, both for SoCal BDR and for a Baja Tour as well. I'll make some noise when we have it on the calendar.
