01/16/10 Cruise to Apple Town: Julian California

pedaltothemetal · January 16th, 2010, 09:09 PM

Just finished a 300 mile ride today to Julian and Palomar.
This is the ROUTE MAP
Meetup is at the Jack In The Box in Irvine off the 5 fwy, Sand Canyon Road exit, fill up with gas again at Ramona which should get us all the way to Pala Casino for a well deserved break. The last gas-up at Pala Casino gas station.

We took a little trip to the old motorcycle town of Julian California?
Julian is a premier mountain getaway, just an hour east of San Diego, in the beautiful Cuyamaca Mountains. We had lunch there at the Julian Grille, 2224 Main St. Saved room in tummy! For desert we went across the street to the famous Julian Pie Company. This town is very famous for their apple pies, so we tasted their claim to fame. We also shopped in stores housed in historic buildings . . . some dating back to the 1870s.
On the road back home we rode thru Palomar Mountain! Lots of straights and twisty roads to keep us busy as well as beautiful mountain scenery to enjoy!

BTW I'm the old guy in white hair riding a Plasma Blue 2008 Ninjette keeping up with the Ducati's, KTM, BMW's, 600cc's, liter bikes and busas. Well on the twisties for sure!

Nice pictures!

I love riding in that area(Pala/Palomar/Ramona/Julian). I wish it was little closer to LA.

Cool pics. Been meaning to try Palomar soon. Not too entirely far off from me.

Will have to look back on this one to see the pics.......

But, I sure could use some Jack in the Box tacos right now

It's a real bummer they did away with the double fudge cake

Sorry to get carried away, but you did mention the BOX

Edit:
Jack in the box in the first pic.... LOL! Nice pics of the day

Im jealous, it seems so nice warm and sunny over there. Its been so cold the last month or so here that I could almost forget that I lived in the deep south. We usually don't get snow but maybe once or twice a year, its snowed like 10 times this winter already.
