I love the SG River trail. I've ridden it solo and in small groups.
Never once had a problem. The first time I rode the trail I flatted
right near the 605/10 interchange just as the sun was setting, which
made for some frenzied tire changing. The more I rode it I realized
the trail is not as remote or isolated as it appears: even though
you seem to be passing through the middle of nowhere--in actuality
you are very close to several major thoroughfares which run parallel
or cross the trail quite regularly. It's very easy to get off if you
have to. My worry nowadays is how easy it is to bring gas powered
scooters or mini(micro?) bikes onto the trail.
There were still some West-Nile mosquito warnings posted the last
time I rode, and one or two coyotes, but that's about it.

I, too, have ridden the SGR bike path from the ocean to the mountains without problems, but I would not say it's "perfectly" safe. There are sections (Downey,...
