Winding Down

Love this road, which winds down the Santa Rosa Mountains towards the desert valley outside the little town of Borrego Springs, CA, about 100 miles south of Palm Springs and roughly the same distance east of San Diego.

Thousands of feet of elevation change in a matter of several miles, achieved via a countless series of twisty and hilly corners like this one.

On a clear day like this, you see the incredibly expansive view.

Road Trip

The idea behind this “100 percent” ride this spring was to combine as many driving environments into a single trip as possible.

It was a single trip, but it encompassed several days and involved many people representing various areas of the car.

Starting in San Diego, as seen here, we wound around the excellent roads on the outskirts of San Diego County and headed towards the desert areas near Borrego Springs. We encountered great twisty roads, lot of elevation and weather changes, which will be seen in subsequent posts over the next few days.
