I'll be in SD from 2/20 - 2/26 for Cyclo-core boot camp (Christmas gift from my wife). We finish on 2/25 at 11:00. It looks like SD is about 100 miles from Long Beach. I thought I read somewhere the stage would finish around 3:00. So is it possible to get from SD to Long Beach in time for the stage finish and maybe a little racing? Also any help with directions and where the heck to go would be great as well.

Thanks - John

Depending on where in SD you are starting from get onto the 805 or the 5 and head north until you get to the 5/405 interchange (exit on the right) where you would get onto the 405 all the way into Long Beach.

Look for a thread in the SoCal forums about meeting up for a ride to the event because parking will be a nightmare.

I'll also be able to show you the pedals attached to the bike!
