    It's a nice trail. Irvine Ranch Land Reserve

    When you want a little extra...head south on PCH at the end in Newport, left on Newport Coast Drive (big climb), left on San Jouaquin and take that back down to the trail by the back bay. Have fun!

    Just follow the signs from the Irvine park area all the way down to back bay.

    the signs are marked in two ways. Some are post mounted (round sign with Blue and Green coloring, and arrows), and where post signs were not feasible, 2' round stenciling is located on the pavement.

    The only area where it's a little sketchy right now is around Irvine Center Drive in Irvine, where you have to follow it a short distance on Harvard Ave. This will change once an undercrossing to the bike path is completed.

    The easiest way is to park at the shopping center at Jamboree and Santiago Canyon and start following the signs down Jamboree. It goes through Peters Canyon.

    Hope this helps.

    Chris,
    Come and join us for another 100 ride tomorrow. We did a 100 today and are doing another tomorrow. Starting at the Starbucks on Ontario in Corona and going to Long Beach and back.

    Mike, you HAVE to let me know when those sunday rides are rolling out from that Starbucks.
    It's a mile from my casa and I'd love to join- and I think I could get Steven to come along- in on a 100 miler!

    I usually check with the crew the night before as they are never solid on a ride till then. But next ride out of Starbucks I'll let you know. PM me your phone number.
