NOTE: On the Long Route, at mile 8.4, for a short stretch (6/10 mile) we are in the construction zone ‘gauntlet’ between the 73 Toll Road signal and the El Toro Signal. No shoulder - take & control the travel lane. If we time the signal - group up and wait for all the tailgating racing motorists to go by, then follow in the empty road with the red light holding up the next wave, it’s not hard to make it downhill to the left turn lane at El Toro before the next platoon comes up behind - and when in the lane, the first motorist should see us and slow down as they come up behind us…
To avoid the construction zone, turn left at Mile 5 onto Lake Forest (there IS a bike button to get a green light to make a box-turn left) and turn right on < ICD / Moulton > and you can miss the majority of the Laguna Canyon and all of El Toro Road…
Please share feedback suggestions & comments on this, or any BCI Ride with our Ride Coordinator.
