An 80-mile cycling event to benefit Haiti earthquake relief efforts will be held in southeastern San Diego County on Feb. 6.
The ’80 for Haiti’ charity ride will begin and end at Pine Valley County Park, about 45 miles east of San Diego. The course will take participants along Old Highway 80, a quiet, traffic-signal-free route on rolling terrain.
