/Slight rant: but this detour takes all of 2 minutes. While I was riding, I did witness a couple people on tt bikes skip the detour and ride south through the construction zone despite the sign saying "No pedestrians or cyclists past this point"...
Remember, being able to use the base is a privilege that the military doesn't have to extend to us. Blowing past signs instead of following a simple detour is the kind of behavior that could get cyclists banned from the base. If you are going to pre-ride that section the course, please follow all the signs, stop at the red lights, Etc.
/Rant off
Cuing off your rant... Every time I do Oceanside I see some idiot pull off their bike somewhere between miles 24 and 40, on the base, to piss on the side of the road. Unfortunately, I never got to see what would happen if a base official or MP rolled up.
Pissing on the side of the road in a race is bad enough. Doing so on a military base, when portapotties are provided every few miles, is just stupid.

Time for another "how to pee on the bike" thread?
