Black Mountain San Diego Gravel Guide

Zack from Gravel Bike California joined us again for a ride in San Diego County. For our 2023 Dev Team kickoff ride we enjoyed a point-to-point course from Carlsbad, through Rancho Santa Fe and Lusardi Canyon to the summit of “Little Black”. From there we headed for the coast through Del Mar Highlands and the Coast-to-Crest Trail, then finished in Cardiff at The Confessional. Watch the video and be sure to like and subscribe for more great content from our friends at GBC. Thanks and enjoy!
