🖤 11/30 SAT - 8 AM | ELFIN FOREST, ESCONDIDO | BLACK LEVEL🖤

The group has never ridden Elfin as far as I know. It is a super fun and unique ride with great views and is more challenging than the #'s seem:
10 miles
2200' of climbing

The ride starts with a 1.25 climb at 11% with switchbacks and techincal sections. There are a lot of rock gardens. I added pics for context. There is no real exposure. We ride along the lake, pictured, and some great technical little loops.

I suggest a long travel trail bike. There are a variety of areas to park from the main lot on the address to a spillover lot to street parking. I'll share my # with anyone that goes so we can coordinate.

There is a big sign in the lot that says "no ebikes". I don't know how much it is enforced, ride one at your own risk.
