Lots of great rideing east and northeast of SD. But takes an hour or more to get out of urban area. I have a few trips I could recomend, but all take at least 4-5 hours, or good portion of a day, and you are visiting family.
Maybe you can incorporate CA94 thru Dulzura and onto I-8 for your return trip, but, as you all ready know, your direct rip on interstates is already 13+ hours, so hard to add any side trips to that and still make it in one day.
Later note: USMC Basic Training, that is San Diego proper.
Not Camp Pendalton up by Oceanside.
I thought I had put more miles behind me yesterday. Still have 600 ish miles to go. Meandering through the hills and stopping for food and photos slowed me down (but that's a good thing) I didn't eat much on my way out to San Diego. This time my wife made a stack of sandwiches and stuffed the tank bag with munchies. Haha[SIZE=10px]Roger

Low 50s, a little windy, but sunny today. (which is nicer than 40s rainy.)
Did some yard work, and went for little ride for lunch
I like thier Perch Sandwich.
GOt the bikes out of garage for a little garage clean up, before going for a longer ride.
THen though, should ride each today,.
Take one on little ride, come back take another, and back and take another.
and should have a name for that.
Maybe "Triple Play"... then I thought, No, should call it a "Trevor Ride".
But, later thought, would need four bikes for that.

Just wanted to share a bit about my trip home from San Diego last week. I spent a little time downtown before traffic got bad.

I went North on I-15 to Escondito, then took hwy 78 East eventually winding up on I-10. Took that to Phoenix then hwy 60 to Quemado, NM. picked up 36, then 117 and eventually I-40 which took me back to Albuquerque.

I got in touch with an FJR owner in San Diego on another forum who had a side case to replace one my son had damaged in Indiana. Pretty darn convenient since I was going to be there anyway. I rode to San Diego with only one so I could carry it home. He also loaded me up with some other parts, four different windshields and some mirrors. I had to go to the post office the next day to ship some of it. The left side case came open and scraped on the road. Luckily all of my stuff didn't wind up on the road. The outer shell came unglued is all. I had a roll of Gorilla tape and a few strips of that stuff held it till I got home.
I split the ride up into two days spending one night in Blythe, CA. Passed by the Imperial Sand Dunes again. This time I stopped to get a better look. I've got to come back and rent a side by side. Those things were everywhere. Long caravans of toy hauler trailers, every couple of miles there'd be bunches of them, like wagons around a campfire.

There was this odd sign posted to identify another nation. WTF is this? Maybe a joke? Looking it up online they seem pretty serious though.

Hwy 78 was a really nice ride through CA. I wish I had gone a bit South from Globe on 70 and ridden through Morenci again. It's been several years since Raygun, another GSR member, and I went that way. Such a fun ride!
60 was nice though. I turned around and rode the stretch through the Salt River Valley a couple of times, haha. Took a few pics before heading toward NM. After that it was slow going. Stop for coffee. Stop for layers. Stop for more layers and to thaw out. That was my fault for not putting all of my warm stuff on the first stop.[SIZE=10px]Roger
