    Borrego Springs, CA

    My Mom spends the winters in Borrego Springs. The wife and I are going to visit her before she returns to MN. We're flying into LA and then driving the scenic route out to Borrego. Is there any way I can get my Bike into checked baggage ?

    How familliar are you with the area? There is excellent riding all around there. More than I have personally ridden by far, and its been a while since I rode through Borrego Springs (on a Triumph Hurricane last time, in the late 80's), but even in a car its really nice.

      Never been there. My Mom and her husband have been wintering there about 6 years and last year they bought a house. Appears to be "29 palms hot" in the summer but my Mom loves it there from Dec-Apr. I see myself out exploring on a on a KTM 950.........

            This is only wishful thinking. Actually more of a dream. Ill be driving a rental car with my wife calling the shots. Those shots will most certinly NOT include anything with 2 wheels .

              I was born and raised in Escondido. Went to Borrego at lest once a year from '62 to '93, when we moved to NM. You'll love it. If your lucky to catch the spring bloom, you will be blown away. Stay at the Hacienda Del Sol, laid back and comfortable bungalows. Enjoy.
