Down in SoCal (Palm Springs area, don't hate).... walked 4 miles w/ wife... let's just say it's not a cultural norm to walk in this area.
Might rent a bike. A couple years ago, down here, I did just that and my brother and I did the Tramway Road climb out of PS. Was BRUTAL. It's rated as the 3rd-hardest climb in SoCal, and it was all of that. I am trying to muster up the gumption to do it again. Can't have too many near-death exercise experiences now can ya.
