Default CA coast ride

Did 100 miles up and down the coast around Big Sur today.&nbsp\\; Kinda sketchy weather, but a decent ride.

Me and a couple buds rode out to CA from MN last summer. Took a ride from Pismo Beach up to Monterey along the coast. It really is a sweet ride.

You know what I mean, then.&nbsp\\; You can get sunburned and rained on all on the same tank of gas.&nbsp\\; They have a marathon each april running north from Big Sur to Carmel, it is a great run with the highway closed down.

I ran it this year, first marathon, and I will be there next year.&nbsp\\; It is cool cause they bus you to the start and it is a one-way race.&nbsp\\; Great support network, music every couple miles, and about 7,000 other runners.&nbsp\\; Great time.&nbsp\\; What are HT leads?

It's all hills, man.&nbsp\\; But there is one long one after Bixby bridge, if I remember right.&nbsp\\; I would definitely train on hills if possible.

JK, come on out.&nbsp\\; Hollister is 45 minutes away, and the rally is in August.

I live in Florida but I'll be in CA next month on business, the day before the rally starts in Hollister.&nbsp\\; I plan to rent a bike in Oakland and ride down to Big Sur, then stop by Hollister on the way back.&nbsp\\; Can anyone give me any advice.&nbsp\\; (I hope I'm not hijacking your thread)
&nbsp\\;
Thanks,
&nbsp\\;
