I biked from Fountain Valley, near Irvine to Diamond Bar, some half of that route for 6 months with no problem. There are adequate surface roads from there on. Contact the Bicycle Club of Irvine and Bill Sellin, who works in the Irvine Rec. Department last I knew.

The 57 shouldn't be too bad - that goes against traffic. (From 5-6 PM on a Friday, that drive sucks big time.) Getting to the 57 will suck, but you probably already know that.

My start time for the TT is 9:50am, so I want plenty of time to get my number and warm up.
Thanks

I don't remember ever doing that drive in the morning, but I think if you leave before 7:30, you'll be fine. If you leave at 7, you'll definitely make it with time to spare.
