Mitch, just found your channel recently and great stuff! I am currently visiting family in CA for the holidays. I really had wish I brought my bike back with me!

@MonteeRidesBikes 3 года назад

Great video Mitch! I love seeing the ride from your POV, Happy Belated Birthday! I'm looking forward to riding in California again, thanks for the shout out and for sharing!

@MitchBoyer 3 года назад

Thanks Montee! Maybe we can do a ride next time you’re back in California ✌️

Totally worth it!

@zeffery101 8 месяцев назад

man, i had a goal to bike up since covid but figured since I only have a mtb, it would wayy too difficult. eventually have to get up there, it is only a 40 min drive from me.

@julianamontoya3877 3 месяца назад

Have you gone back? I am about 43 miles from here and have been pushing in that direction on my ride. This video pumped me up

@MitchBoyer 3 месяца назад

I haven't been back yet, but I wanna do it again this summer! I'm curious to see my perspective now after training for a few years. I remember it being a great climb

@catherinecourter3626 2 года назад

Hey! Great video- I’m planning to ride up Palomar from Encinitas- any links to good route from the coast??? Thx

@MitchBoyer 2 года назад

I haven’t seen for one from Encinitas, but you could probably use this route from Oceanside to help you build one ridewithgps.com/routes/6838234

Beautiful ride! How do you carry with you your normal camera? (not the 360° one)

@MitchBoyer 3 года назад

Thanks! The "normal camera" on these rides is a GoPro Hero 9. The image quality is surprisingly good! I stick the GoPro and a little tripod in one of my jersey pockets and pull it out when I need it on the ride.

@JohnLemieux Год назад

Considering doing a sea to summit from Oceanside to Palomar Mtn. Gonna need some serious training though.

@JohnLemieux Год назад

Btw there are a lot of vistas! They're just not where the observatory is. A great one is at (33.334797, -116.919957), it's a fire lookout tower.

How did you find the cars on it? I'm in San Diego county, and trying to build myself up for that big climb. Some local bike shop folks say they love riding it, but only do it in big group rides because that's when it gets blocked off just for cyclists, and has highway patrol protection. I'm not fast enough for a big group event; just stubborn and happy to take a break to enjoy the view on the way up a few times. Apparently the fancy car people like taking the switchbacks entirely too fast... and that's scary as heck. All the bad stereotypes about SoCal drivers are true. Ick. Would it be rude to ask a family member to tail me in their car with a "don't pass fast - cyclist ahead" sign on their rear?

@MitchBoyer 2 месяца назад

There were not a lot cars the day I went. Its was a Friday at the beginning of August. I think I was passed by maybe 4 or 5 cars on the climb. The road leading to the climb was very busy, but I didn't ride on it, I started the ride form the Taco place at the bottom of the hill. Hope that helps!
