Biking has become my new favorite thing! I recently purchased a road bike and have been on it every chance I get...which means dragging asking Bobby to come along on rides with me. This weekend we set out on our longest ride yet. It was a perfectly beautiful day on the central coast so we loaded up our bikes on the car and drove up to San Simeon, which is about 45 minutes north of SLO. We decided to ride on the northern part of Highway 1 because it's generally less populated and less developed, making it a more enjoyable, scenic ride.
check out those bike shorts!
made it to Big Sur! 21 miles one way
Ragged Point
made it up the steepest climb of my life!
not a bad view for the way home
By about mile 38, we were both dead but plowed through to the end and were so stoked to finish! 42 miles. not too shabby. I love that we were able to reach such an awesome destination and make a day out of this adventure.
Our goal is to do a Century ride next year and do some bike touring along the coast.
Until then, I'll settle for weekend rides like this ;)
