    So, approximately 40 miles of riding, drinking and eating "Italian" food?

    Whew...Dayum!

    Anyone wanna do this from the Irvine train station? Tacks on an extra 20-plus miles and earns you that first pint at PP San Clemente.

    This sounds fun. Any ideas about the total mileage if we start in Fullerton?

    I haven't mapped it, but I think it would double the mileage.

    I'm reeling back my ambitions a bit and considering starting from the Irvine station instead. I'm sure my bum knee will thank me for this later. This route adds a little more than 20 miles and also cuts out the most hazardous section of PCH through Laguna Beach:

    So is anyone riding from Fullerton?

    I'd prefer to start from as far north as possible (what a fool) since I'm driving from Downey. If Irvine is as good as it gets... so be it.

    Looking forward to it.

    Since I don't do the roadie thing, how about hitting the three Pizza Ports and taking the train both ways? 8-[

    I'm thinking about doing that from fullerton station.:wave:

    Beware that if we take that route we should start early and the route should be around 90 miles with about 2500-3000 ft of climbing.:beer:

    We can do some circles to make it a century! Painfreak?:lol:

    Here is the route I have in mind
