Jobob's California Coast Adventure

Jobob:

Can I come? Please! Pretty Please...that sounds wonderful. Something we are planning to do when the kids move out:D Best of luck on your adventure!


karen

Wow, JoBob! Inadequate response, but all I can come up with. :rolleyes:

I am envious of where you are going to ride and the fact that you and your DH (right?) both have a wish to do such a thing. Think of all the fun you'll have planning, too!

Aw, shucks, Annie :o
It's nothing compared to what Denise accomplished on her cross-country ride, or what I suspect Cindy will do this summer.

Yeah, it's pretty neat that I can head out my door and a couple of hours later be cruising down the Pacific Coast. DH and I make noises about moving to the Northwest eventually (Portland-Seattle-ish), but for the time being, this is not an awful place to be.

Karen, I'll bet there's some very nice touring in your neck of the woods too. But sure, c'mon over ! :D

Actually, once we have the dates figured out, it would be fun if anyone would like to ride with us along the way, if even just the first day out to Pescadero. Only bear in mind we'll be a lot slower than we generally are, so you might have to give us a good head start before Old La Honda Road :rolleyes:

Hey, I'm slow! Can I come?

Of course, I'm nowhere near Cali., and have all these silly obligations... I'm just going to have to be satisfied with my own trips (yep, plural) this year.

Life's hard:rolleyes:

i you might have already been forwarded this blog but maybe you'll find it helpful... there's a trip from san simeon to santa barbara in there...

sorry to barge in so late but I've been reading all the posts and thought you might like to read it!!

happy planning!

T~

allright, here's some pictures:

these aren't in order and I still need to identify some of the pics, but wanted to get something up since I promised them ages ago....

1) 17 mile drive
2) camp site (will have to go back and figure out where?)
3) friends from camp we went to dinner with
4) drying clothes on my bob between camp sites (where?)
5) our gear (note that I'm pulling the bob trailer)
6) Monterey - my boyfriend Andrew looks like a freaking nazi here
7) nice jersey honey - is that from the 80's?
8) Pescadero (at least this one has a sign identifying it)

continued...........

what beautiful pictures! I wish my DH had some interest in doing that stuff! Where did you begin/finish? How long to do the tour?
