Monterey Adventure – BionicOldGuy

My native bike group is a part of the bigger Almaden Cycle Touring Club (ACTC) from San Jose. I’ve been that means to department out farther afield and go on different ACTC rides, and Friday was my likelihood as a result of they have been doing what a enjoyable experience in Monterey. My good friend Kris from Morgan Hill was additionally going so we have been in a position to carpool over.

The experience began in Sand City which is subsequent to Monterey on the coast. There is a paved bike path that runs alongside there (the Monterey Bay Coastal Recreation Trail, 18 miles lengthy, which begins in Castroville). We took that to its finish in Pacific Grove out on the Monterey peninsula, then took coastal roads in Pacific Grove round to the beginning of 17 mile drive which runs by way of Pebble Beach to Carmel. We then took native roads in Carmel, then had a lunch break there. Then we looped round on the coast in Carmel until we bumped into a special Pebble Beach entrance additional inland, and took 17 mile drive again to Monterey, then on again roads again to the beginning, for a complete of 37 miles. This took a very long time as a result of we made loads of stops at historic factors and scenic outlooks, which made for an satisfying day. There have been loads of vacationers out on such a stunning day.
