B, some advice... having done Coldwater I can tell you its not one that you want to end a 50mi ride with. Trust me... its a ton of sharp switchbacks that you want to be on your game for. That, and the last mile or so is incredibly steep. If you're all tired it will not be a good day out, and walking this stuff will not be easier than riding it! You should try riding it as described in the geoladders route. Get Coldwater done earlier on and HJ will be a better descent to end with.

We can just start at the end of Trabuco Canyon Rd. instead of ITT. Sound good?
