Hey everyone
I'm getting my cycling fitness back and want to test myself out on some hills. Where is a good place, with little/no traffic, for me to practice?

Hi Mark,
SD County has plenty of hills, but also plenty of auto traffic. It's just how it is in a place
that so many people want to live!
I would suggest: Highland Valley Road (near Escondido/Poway areas and Bandy Cyn. nearby);
east of Julian, including the desert areas (winter is a good time to ride in the desert);
Palomar Mountain. Also suggest using ridewithgps.com and searching for areas based on elevation
gain. Also, NCCC has several groups that regularly climb hills.
