This week, the Standard Route will be 28 miles (approx 900ft of climbing) and will head up to the Peet’s Coffee at Portola and Culver. After the pit, it’s a slow rise over to Alton and then back to the cars.

The Advanced Route will be 50 miles (approx 3000ft of climbing) and heads up through Turtle Rock then up Von Karman/Tustin Ranch Rd to Peet’s at Portola and Culver. After the pit, we head UP Alton to the other Portola and the Starbucks at Los Olisos and Santa Margarita before working our way back to the cars by going around Lake Mission Viejo where you will be on some of the roads used during the 1984 Summer Olympics Road Cycling events with a photo op (if you desire) at the corner of Alicia Pkwy and Olympiad (Florence Joyner Olympiad Park) with multi-colored cycling statues.  Then just before you make your turn off of Olympiad you will be crossing the “Finish Line” used for the 1984 Cycling events.
