Join us for our annual ride and camp weekend to Borrego Springs! Meet at the Mira Mesa Park & Ride (Mira Mesa Blvd & I-15) at 0800. Leave your camping gear with a SAG vehicle and enjoy the ride to Borrego Palm Canyon Campground.

Spend the evening sharing dinner and stories around the campfire. After breakfast, ride back to San Diego via Montezuma Grade. SAG support is limited to carrying your gear—riders are responsible for their own transportation to Borrego.
