Average speed 12.5mph
Total ascent 361m
I was expecting a slow day. A day where concentration and patience were more important than physical endurance. I wasnt wrong. This was my least favourite day of the tour by far but it wasnt as bad as i thought it might be
As I set off at a post rush hour 9:44 I was wondering how the beach paths would be. My map had said it could be busy and not without hazard. As it turned out the paths were pretty quiet and i didnt mind giving way to pedestrians etc when required. This might have been a different story if i hadnt taken it on before the weekend - i love it when a plan comes together!
But despite being quiet it wasnt possible to go quick on the paths as they wind about a bit. So a 12mph day was going to be a good outcome.
The real worry was always going to be when i had to head into the city through Torrance (very busy) and Carson (not quite so) to Long Beach.
In my maps notes it says in LA car is King. Absolutely true...tbc
