Quoted message said:Why don't you go ride the boardwalk in Mission Beach
then? That sounds like what you are looking for.
Well, I *know* they rent rusty cruisers down there!
TJ's snide humor (I hope?) aside, the easiest place
around SD is probably Rancho Penasquitos (although it
has lots of tough parts available); also Sycamore Canyon
in Santee (though still messed up from fires last year).
Not sure what to suggest re. rentals; best bet probably
the Yellow Pages.

I love when people ask for flat trails. I was being a
smart @$$. I shouldn't do that. Mountaing Bike Warehouse
would be a good place to start for bike rentals.
If I am new to the sport as is clearly stated in the subject
, what is wrong with looking for trail without steep
uphills? I didn't say flat. As far as the ride down the
boardwalk great suggestion. Give me the address and I'll
make a detour to your Mom's house while I'm at it and she
could do the riding when I get there.

You might try looping the harbor. You will have to take the ferry for part of the ride but flat it is. Harbor drive kinda sucks. The roads in pretty bad shape, but since you will be on a mountain bike, it won't matter. The rest of the ride is pretty nice.
