go right ahead. Its hard to find clear information so I'll share what I can find.

Barrett-Stoddard. This looks a good possibility - 12 miles with one sustained steep section. I'd try it the other direction and finish in Baldy Village.

Lower Monroe Truck Trail. 15.5 miles and flatter overall. By the sounds of it, more foot and MTB traffic. Ends up on GRR so opens up some possibilities. Some comments say the lower section is very wet right now.

I can't find too much information on trails to Sunset Peak, except for the 4 mile fire road from GRR named the Sunset Ridge Fire Road. On Google Map Pedometer I created a route that follows a ridge, The Sunset Ridge Trail > The Sunset Peak Motorway, which begins in San Dimas Canyon and follows a long ridge across the mountains to some radio TV Antennae about 1000' below Sunset Peak. The trail from the towers to the peak looks a lot steeper. For some reason the app would not let me complete the route to GRR so i ended it close to the peak - but it looks like there are several ways to get to the highway. Who knows, I will just have to go explore.

Other more straightforward possibilities might be simply following San Dimas Canyon Road up to GRR

or

Taking Sycamore Flats Motorway to The Johnstone Peak Truck Trail which also looks like it will reach GRR.

I'm guessing simply by their names that these are double track but who knows?
