  1. Can anyone suggest some good rode-bike dayrides in and around Cambria?
    I'll be visiting from Washinington State in May and would like to get
    some local insight.

    We usual enjoy rides anywhere from 20 - 50 miles. Hills not a problem.

    Any locals down there care to make some suggestions? I'd be happy to
    do the same for anyone that is interested in visiting up here this
    year.

    Thanks,

    MarkoT

  2. Marko,

    Well I can't claim to be a local - but one ride I enjoyed is on-line
    at http://www.lkjh.org/bike/california/slo/santa_rosa/index.html if
    you follow the links near the bottom of the web page you can load maps
    in Google Maps or Google Earth.

    Enjoy your trip

  3. I'm not local but I have gone to SLO to do brevets. This website has
    the route slips.
    http://cccbrevets.com/events.htm

    You can pick out sections of these routes to ride. The sections north
    from Paso Robles are low traffic. Closer to the coast (and Cambria)
    is Old Creek Rd, Hiway 46, Santa Rosa Creek Rd (hills!).

    You can also contact SLO bicycling club. (http://www.slobc.org/
    Home.html). They are well organized and have a ride almost every day
    of the year.

    Hope this helps,
    Tom

    Check in ba.bicycles. There is an SLO brevets series that has route sheets
    for what they do in the area. I have ridden the Central Coast Double and it
    is my only time through the area. The area was fairly flat and flat as far
    as the coast. Challenge was the hills. You have Rugged Pt and Santa Rosa
    Rd. I didn't go south and west is a bit wet. If you are adventurous,
    going north on Hwy 1 will take you to the Big Sur area. Some great scenery.
    It is a bit out of the range of you posted. Besides SLO bike club, check
    with the bike shops in Paso Robles. I am sure they go out there all of the
    time.
