Seems like the meeting place is very close to Otay Lakes road without having to go to the 125, like we could pick up the dirt near the Thousand Trails campground by just taking 94 to Otay lakes from the coffee shop.

In my travels I have noticed there are several new gates on the dirt roads depending on route. The current route has a high success rate of actually making it where we need to go.

I appreciate the suggestion. Launching from the RV park is good but lands one 'tween the 905 ride start and the 94, skipping a majority of the border fence & the 250 monument....along with some fantastic views.

This is more of a "start at the west end, pop out on the east end" ride.

Maybe someone knows that route. It would be terrific. Anyone? Pasta?

Please explore this option outside of this thread to avoid confusion. The ride will remain as posted to avoid confusion/last minute changes.

Dangit....! Pressure

At any point during the ride you don't appreciate the scenery, riding conditions, etc.....just close your eyes and imagine where you'd like to be. Bingo! Outstanding ride

Looking forward to meeting/riding with everybody!

Not bringing a passport, on purpose...

An update Ken: as of this evening, no work this weekend. But as of this morning, I am having brake issues with my bike. When I rode it to work, I noticed the brake pedal was lower than usual. When I got to work I noticed the disc was scorched and the pads were glazed. ... Ill troubleshoot and let you know if I'm coming or not. I'm optimistic tho.

Ogio vests have room for a tape measure.

Huh.

Shock, can you explain what that means? What would a tape measure have to do with this?

Help me understand.

Thanks.

Hmmmm, Bikeslut to the white courtesy phone for interpretation of intentionally vague and ambiguous posts. From the previous ride write-up, 2Wheels stated: "The boundary lines Google shows can be a few feet off. The border fence is about 3 feet inside the United States."

Cripes, participating in a hijack of my own thread. In the last write up, everyone wanted to ride thru the train tunnel and there was mucho discussion about if it came out in Mexico. As Shock mentioned, the above statement was made re would the tunnel actually end in Mexico or was it a few feet off on Google. Hence the need for the tape measure in ref to a passport.

A trip to Baja would be shorter than that explanation.
