Highway 1 to Big Sur

Many people told us that we HAD to see Big Sur, and there were times when we wondered how different it could be from the many miles of coastline we had already ridden in Oregon and California, but we were glad we listened. The views from the road carved out of the steep hillside are spectacular, and while the road is narrow, it is well known as a scenic route; we found the drivers to be more patient with cyclists than many other stretches of road we have ridden, which made the narrow winding road a pleasure to ride.
