Bake to 405 NB entrance: Mile 19.9
• If you are already controlling the #3 lane, motorists heading for the freeway will pass on the right in #4 RTOL. Those going straight can merge and pass you in the #1 or #2 lanes on your left.
• If you ride in the bike lane, it ends at the second double entrance so you will have speeding motorist passing and entering the freeway across you from the #3 combo lane and the #4 RTOL, You may not be unable to merge over to control the #3 lane at that point when the bike lane ends. If you are stuck in the bike lane, just stay right and use the shoulder or sidewalk along the entrance, all the way to the crosswalk.
• Watch out at the crosswalk. If one lane stops for you the second lane may not.
Controlling the #3 combo lane really is safest.

DETOUR ON 30 MILE ROUTE TODAY
There is 1/2 mile of construction zone on Lagna Canyon.
It is a segment wher ethere is no shoulder, concrete barriers and you must take the lane. You can ‘time the light’ to follow a platoon of traffic and ride downhill before the next platoon of traffic catches up with you.
To avoid it, take the SHORT CUT route, or the detour:
Pavona Sidewalk & Romano sidewalk to Lake Forest Road to Moulton to El Toro Road. The construction is at mile 8.4 but to detour, you must cross the 133 @ mile 4.5.
The DETOUR WILL ADD 2.5 MILES to today’s ride. Map/Profile/.tcx
This DETOUR will be offered until the construction work is completed by Caltrans.

Savvy Tips for Route 21:
The full route takes Bake across the 405 freeway...
All though Bake is a Class II bikeway, Irvine and Caltrans have failed to paint any of their own Complete Streets tools, and allows both right lanes to enter the freeway at two high speed entrances. Mile 19.7 to 20.3 can be a very stressful 1/2 mile.
Even though posted at 50 MPH, motorists speed on Bake, and they accelerate as they merge into the high speed entrances, making it critical for cyclists to assert their lane position early to be seen and safely cross the freeway.
You can’t signal and hope to be let over, you need to time your merge and be assertive.

Rockfield to Bake: @Mile 19.7
• Pause on Rockfield to regroup; several cyclists together have an advantage to be seen and control any lane. Pausing also lets you time the signal so less traffic is coming down Bake behind you as you merge into the road. This is a perfect place to use the Right on Green CycleSavvy tip: Stop on the red and WAIT until the green light - Bake traffic will be held with a red light and give you at least a head start on the road.
• Merge out of the narrowing #4 lane as soon as possible to control the #3 lane.
There is no room to ride the gutter & share the #4 lane with passing vehicles.
Clear the #4 RTOL: take & Control the #3 lane or take the sidewalk.
If you don’t feel safe merging over, use a driveway to get onto the sidewalk.

Bake to 405 NB entrance: Mile 19.9
• If you are already controlling the #3 lane, motorists heading for the freeway will pass on the right in the #4 RTOL. Those going straight can merge and pass you in the #1 or #2 lanes on your left.
• If you try to control the #4 RTOL you will have speeding motorist passing and entering the freeway across you from the #3 combo lane, and will be unable to merge over to control the #3 lane.
Just stay right and use the shoulder to the crosswalk.
• If you make it to the shoulder or ride the sidewalk, watch out at the crosswalk. If one lane stops for you the second lane may not.
Controlling the #3 combo lane really is safest.

BAKE to 405 SB entrance: Mile 20.3
• There is an unmarked bike lane over the bridge, but merge back out to control the #3 combo lane as early as possible, well before the bike lane ends for a RTOL.
• If you make it to the shoulder after the bike lane ends or ride the sidewalk, watch out at the crosswalk. If one lane stops for you the second lane may not.
• Past the exit, everyone can get together in the bike lane at mile 20.4.
