I would love a carpool if anyone is leaving from the OC. PM me. I live in Irvine. I can meet just about anywhere close to Irvine. I can share some gas mullah, funny stories, tune up your bike and get some really really bad for you breakfast drive through.

triplebutted, that is a great timed century. The route is quite hard, Pine Creek is a monster! But is a must do century if you like real hard stuff. Good luck this Saturday.

Hear hear. Good luck!
I just did my first AdventureCorps ride last month and I'm really, really looking forward to this one too.
Sorry I can't really carpool with you Triple; I'm leaving from Carlsbad. I'll be the chubby guy on the black felt and the Hinault/Lemond wannabe colors. (And perhaps I'll get to be #1 again, haha.) See you there hopefully!

Will do. And when I say "Argh! Gasp! Whimper..." I mean "Hey, how's it going, Pine Creek?"

Ooog! Never had to WALK up a hill before, and I was riding a 39-28!
This was the hardest event I've ever done. It was therefore an inopportune time to spend the last three weeks on almost exclusively rollers. It was a real wake-up call for l'Etape next month. I've got some hill training to do and some pounds to drop!

Hey there is not shame in walking Pine Creek, especially after the 80 miles and the 8000 ft you’ve already climbed at that point, so the hill becomes a different animal. Congrats on the ride and becoming one of proud finishers.

@GP yes that is the road.
