This Saturday, we're heading to Oceanside with a detour to PID for those who love to climb (and suffer). We'll be kicking things off from the Irvine MetroLink station and wrapping up at Oceanside, so we can enjoy a leisurely train ride back while basking in the glory of our accomplishments (or nursing our regrets). The route has us going through Camp Pendleton, but you will need a pass to go through the base. I don't have the pass, so I will be riding on the shoulder of the freeway. I have ridden on the shoulder on the past and in my opinion it is safe.
Trains back from Oceanside leave at 1:28, 2:35, and 5:23. If you're feeling particularly motivated (or have mastered time travel), the 1:28 train is an option—just make sure you're ready to sprint like you're in the Tour de France. As for me, I will pass for certain medical reasons.
PID is, of course optional.
Most will be grabbing lunch at Local Tap House in Oceanside.
