    Where do you want to start? It could be between a 50 and 70 mile round trip depending on the strarting point...r even shorter if we start farther south. Also would you want to do PCH the whole way or go through Santiago Cyn to the 133 first?

    Are talking 50 miles straight or 25 there sit eat rest etc... then 25 back. I wouldnt want to try and do more then 50 without at least good rest period somewhere in the middle.

    I dont care what direction really.

    Not gonna deal with the smoke personally. I may ride something short further south and closer to the coast, or I may try to get a proper fit finally. I think I'm leaning toward getting fit as my back is killing me from last nights 40+ mile sprint. (thank you Jay and Chewy [-()

    Coastal air was fine from Seal Beach to San Diego today. You shouldn't have a problem should you choose to ride there.

    Yeah, I'd be down for this when the smoke from the Station fire is gone. I'd prefer an early start so I can climb up 39 for extra credit. Not Disco's Wrightwood option, but maybe up to Crystal Lake... At least to check out the burn damage.
