Calling all wheelers: O.C. Beach Cities Ride

October 29th 9 a.m.

Sorry for the short notice. Just got a new wheel and I'm a bit distracted. 

Free street parking near 1401 Bayside Dr, Corona Del Mar, CA 92625

Note: Take the 73 and exit at MacArthur for free. MacArthur is the last free exit before the toll road begins. 

____________________________________

The ride goes through Balboa Island, across the ferry to the Peninsula. We'll take the beach side bike path up through Newport Beach, continue up through Huntington Beach, Bolsa Chica Beach and then Sunset Beach. .

Total miles: Approx 30-/+

Skill: Moderate (pedestrians, dogs, bikes, surfboards). We'll be on hard, flat, level ground for most of the ride. There are a couple of short distances we'll cover on residential streets and a short distance on the sidewalk along PCH to cross the bridge. I gauged the safety aspects of these portions for new, or younger riders and feel everyone should be good.

This ride should be much less crowded than our first run on this path considering it's a weekday.

Great ride guys. I had a blast. Thank you. 

Next up, Cook's Corner to Dana Point and back. I'm thinking about Sunday, November 3rd. 

Cheers!! :cheers:

Did the Cook's to Dana happen?  I will need a much bigger wheel than my Z10 for rides like this (especially with no quick charger).

Please post pictures and routs (Strava, WheelLog...)

Nope, sorry. I had a few things pop up. Good stuff, though! :clap3:

I ride a Nikola so my V10F fast charger would be available. It's going to be at least another week before I can announce that CC-DP ride. It's looking more like the 24th or 30th. 

As far as the route is concerned try this:

Google's biking estimate: 2 hr 5 min (25 mi)
