Tweaking the Pacific Coast Route
This past spring we received an online map correction card from the Orange County Bicycle Coalition in California. They were offering suggestions for tweaking the Pacific Coast Bicycle Route: "North or Southbound in Southern California we have established "safe passage" routes through the towns of Newport Beach, Laguna Beach, and Dana Point. Please consider these "alt routes" for rider safety."We love using local and from-the-road feedback to improve our routes and will look into making these changes the next time that map section Pacific Coast #5 is reprinted.In the meantime, you can take advantage of these alternates routes via their well done Alt Routes on PCH web page. They have maps and turn by turn instructions for both directions.Give them a look and let us know what you think.--
