Default Roadie Ride afterwork Irvine 5:30pm

Gonna ride raod after work today at 5:30pm. Starting close to Tustin Marketplace in Irvine. Either will take a flat spin along bike path to backbay and back or perhaps do Santiago Canyon Road.

Chime in if you're interested, and we'll set up a meeting place.

What pace are you thinking of holding? I was thinking about heading out after work also. I will be starting at Jeffery and Alton.

I'd like to get a 2hour ride in, pace isn't that important to me. Not really sure how fast/slow because I usually ride solo and don't pay much attention to the speedometer.

When I was doing longer rides of about 50 miles I was averaging around 16mi/hr but that's with some long gradual climbs on Newport Blvd, on Jamboree heading up to Chapman, and all the rolling hills on Santiago Canyon Rd.

CJwally, we could always meet up, and if you want hammer faster that's cool, no problem.

Hey..I just happen to live right there - but I don't got a road bike. I don't think the Voodoo at 32/21 will be able to hang...

Well, if it's a flat ride you can try my commuter. But it's singlespeed 52/20 gearing but I find that works pretty well.

Lets meet at the corner of Jamboree and Irvine Blvd. @ 5:30ishish. Figure it out from there... Sound good?

You guys should come out and ride with the OC Rebel Riders. They ride on Tues and Thursday's starting at 6PM. Meet in the parking lot of the park off Barranca and E.Yale Loop right off Jeffrey.
