Looks like a couple of my local club may be riding with us. We're up to 4!

I think 5 is a good time. And yes, they're moving up the marathon. What that means, I don't know yet, other than they have cut out the downtown loop. Heading West right off the bat. I think we'll be ok.

Cool. I don't plan on going to the beach party. I'll be heading back from Santa Monica.

I'm most likely going to take the Red Line back to North Hollywood, but this is the route I intend to take back to Wilshire & Vermont: https://www.strava.com/routes/1561290

Why don't we call the meetup at 5am at the NW Corner of Sunset and Vermont. I'm parking in that building, t x can take the train right to that building and r8dr, that's far enough from the start that you can get dropped there (or very nearby). Does that work for everyone. I'm open to adjusting as anyone sees fit.

t x - by the fact that you mapped the return from Docweiler, I assume you're going to the after-party?

LA Marathon Crash - Possible Route - LA, CA
It uses some bike lanes, but I'm open to suggestions. Plus, I may have the return trip on some roads that are closed (Wilshire specifically), so there may have to be some creativity, but I know the area well enough to get us back if we have to improvise a bit.
