Avoid El Toro and Rockfield in Lake Forest. They're bead blasting the new pavement around the intersection. I had the misfortune to get stopped at a red light with my top down. Now the car, my clothes, and my hair are covered with grit.

oh, that sucks bro. Only thing worse than that is the same experience - but when you're on your bicycle.... it hurts.

I work off El Toro and it's been sh!tty for a long time now. If I need to go that way, I'll go around using Lake Forest or Alicia. No El Toro for me.

Its been pretty bad, but it IS cleaning up pretty nicely. It has been TERRIBLE the past years that I've lived here, but its beginning to look good.
