71.3 miles to King City, CA. The detour turned out to be pretty nice.
Mostly farms.
I pulled a huge thorn out of my tire today which slowly went flat. I
have been lucky so I wasn't too upset.
This camp has no biker site so we'll see if I get stuck with the 25
dollar fee or not.
44.6 miles to Monterey. Some beaches some farms. Lots of people biking.
Looks like tomorrow I have to start a 150 mile detour around the wild
fires out here. Which means I miss Big Sur and some of the coolest
part of the entire coast. But what can I do if it's on fire?
54.3 miles to Santa Cruz. Another great ride. Tons of surfers. And I
spotted some dolphins.
Staying with friends of Jasmine's, Lisa and Rocky. Much thanks.
25.1 miles to camp at a "hiker/biker" site at Half Moon Bay Beach.
I'm just getting started heading west and the views are already wild.
You can just make out route 1 on the left, which is basically what I'm
taking all the way to Mexico.
I got pretty comfortable in San Fransisco, and it was tough to get
back on the bike.
It has been amazing out here. The weather is always perfect, the food
is unbelievable, and Jasmine has been a blast to hang out with.
Planning on staying through the weekend but it's coming to fast.
Happy 4th, maybe we'll go watch the fireworks.
So I made it to the Pacific Coast. Today me and Jasmine rode 29 miles
out to and around San Fransisco. Went on the Golden Gate Bridge,
dipped a toe in the pacific, and got to see more of the city.
It feels great to have made it here. But I'm still planning on going
down the west coast from here after a little break.
