Half Moon Bay, California

On the ocean-no photo's yet but we are just 30 miles out of San Francisco. Drove from Salinas to Big Sur today and back up. CA 1 was closed 30 miles south of Big Sur so we rode up to the slide and back tracked and came around up 101 and then back down to Big Sur and back tracked out of there today.

Windy riding - 20-30 mph winds with 40-50 mph guest and it was cold 40 degrees along the water. 70 degrees inland a few miles. Wind was the big issue on the narrow roads.

Looking north from 1 about 10 miles south of Monteray Bay, Very windy and nearly blew over the bike on its stand. Highest point on this part of the ride.

 Down town Big Sur

South of Big Sur on 1 we rode across this twice today. This was the longest of about 8 bridges we rode across twice today.

I should have taken a lot of photos of the flowers here. They are all in bloom and they are everywhere.
