This small airport in Temecula sits right along the road, giving you a clear view of the landing strip as you ride by. If you’re lucky, you might even catch a small plane taking off or landing.

From Linda Rose, you can stop to see Galway Downs from above. It’s an equestrian facility, so if you’re lucky, you might catch some horses training.
