    Try La Costa, pretty near by...You might also like San Clemente Single Tracks, might be a little similar to what you are used to riding but without trees. I moved to SD from flat areas years ago. First ride was up Jackson fire road at Mission trails, nearly puked and cramped badly, but I saw other guys just going right up so it seemed possible...If you want to fall in love with riding in this area do Indian Creek/Noble Canyon/Big Laguna Trail network, either in parts or all together. There's also some challenging gravity stuff in Alpine area off Anderson truck trail...Mountain Bike Bill's website is a great resource for riding in the area, including detailed maps.
