Why this plan works

The 3 stops cover about 1.5 miles total, which keeps you in one pocket of Moreno Valley instead of crossing town between them. Round1 Bowling & Arcade - Moreno Valley is the main event and takes the biggest block of time; the other stops are built around it. It finishes at Joe's Italian — a short, low-effort stop you can skip if you're ready to call it.
