Going to do a little ride down highway 1 Saturday. Plan is to get out to the gorilla BBQ in Pacifica for lunch and then head south.

Any must sees ?

 

after you get past Monetary it gets real nice but stop in Moss Landing go eat at Phils fish market

 

A little late to give advice for that trip, but next time you are down this way Phil's is a great place to stop for a bite.
Lots of good riding to be done around here, in the Monterey area, just watch out for the tourist traffic in the summer.

 

In early July I'm vacationing out in SD/LA and was gonna rent a ride and go up the 1 for a day out of LA. Anything I should look for?

 

1st - be careful of the old folks driving their BMW's and Mercedes on Hwy 1 who don't watch for motorcycles.
2nd - On the way north out of LA there is a lot of traffic on Hwy 1. Depending on how far you want to go, you might be better taking the freeway north and then cut back across to Hwy 1.
3rd - If you like fish, Neptune's Net in Malibu is a good place to eat with decent prices.
