Jack Creek - Cougar Ridge Trail at Daley Ranch
Cycling route in Valley Center, California, United States
This is a good training run. Several steep hills, including paved and unpaved. Some forced me to carry the bike. Some long fairly flat stretches. Great views from the Cougar Ridge area.

Nate Harrison grade/ south grade Palomar loop
Cycling route in Valley Center, California, United States
I parked & started at the taco shop.
Recommend Riding the loop clockwise.
Nate Harrison is hard pack sand/ gravel.
Perfect for cross bike. Might be ride-able on road bike, but some chunks will suck.
Bring your climbing gears. a 39*28 was brutal.
Didn't see a car for 2.25 hours of nate harrison rd...watch out for rattlesnake (really)
whole ride will take around 3 hours; the climb up takes 2 hours.
