I guess if they reposted the thread I'll repost my post from the other thread haha
I really hope that they go up into the Hollywood Hills. I would LOVE a Paris style course. Paris had 1437 feet of elevation gain. I would love to see a 1500 foot elevation gain course, hit the Hollywood walk of fame, hit the Griffith Observatory, with a similar descent and maybe finish at Dodger's stadium or even pass Dodger's stadium and finish at the Laker's stadium.

Californians, where do we think the course will go after the start? Where will it end? Does the fact that we know it starts in Venice Beach tell us anything significant?
But isn't there already a thread for this?
yes rojo is late to the news on his own message board as usual
That is the area that hosted the 1932 Olympic Marathon.
South Central was mostly White then, due to restrictive covenants.
aka Apartheid. by 1984 Olys, blacks had fought and defeated LAPD, in man to man combat with guns, rifles, etc. the Ku Klan Klan was forced out of LA.P.D. They didn't leave voluntarily. Mark Fuhrman, Stacy Koons, Lawrence Powell, Daryl Gates, etc. were kicked out by the blacks.
Unfortnately, Seb Coe has no say in the matter. He was certain ti wil the IOC Pr esidency, then #Wc2022Eugene blew his career forever. It was the worst WC in his tory. A total flop.
The course hasn't been unveiled but we now know where it will start:

This historic beachfront neighborhood in Los Angeles will also host the official starting locations for the Marathon and Cycling Road courses. The courses and finishes for both the Marathon and Cycling Road will be confirmed and announced at a later date.

Really hope they do a finish in the stadium they do track in as they did in the past! I think the idea of them getting to do a final lap around that packed stadium seems awesome and would be a cool throwback. However probably will not happen because a very small group do events on the track and the road at the Olympics.
