[SDCBC] On Voice of San Diego this morning

[Serge Issakov]

Good comments so far.  This one caught my eye:

-------

*23. *Fred wrote on July 15, 2008 6:46 PM:
"Perhaps this hasn't yet been done---but it would be wise to survey the
roads for currently usable and preferred roadways for bikes. *Unused roads
like the switchback trails that lead from Kensington to the valley* could be
''adopted'' by bike clubs, restored and narrowed so they are useless for any
other transport vehicle. Cyclists need to think in terms of carving out
their own spaces rather than wait for some @#$%! politician to do anything
but nothing on the matter, and a sense of locals creating their own
thoroughfares where they can would do much for a community of commuters. It
would be safer in the long run, too."

Anyone know anything about these "Unused roads like the switchback trails
that lead from Kensington to the valley"?  What is their grade,
approximately?  How wide are they?  What is the surface like?  What
condition are they in?  Where are they?  Can you find them on google maps
satellite view and send links?

Thanks,

Serge
