О туре

Ride the length of the Big Sur coastline from Carmel-by-the-Sea to San Luis Obispo on this intermediate-level bike tour. From Pebble Beach to Hearst Castle view crashing surf, elephant seals, and the southern-most redwood forests. South of Cambria, pedal through famous coastal communities like Morro Bay and Pismo Beach. Inland, ride through some of “golden” California’s finest terrain: wide valleys of vineyards flanked by rolling hillsides covered in scattered groves of live (evergreen) oak. Explore Edna Valley, a producer of premium wines, and host to a diverse array of charming wineries. 


Please note, guests on this tour should be comfortable riding in a variety of terrain, including on roads with narrow shoulders and vehicle traffic.

Программа тура

День 1

Ride the iconic 17-Mile Drive past Pebble Beach, through forests & along the oceanfront to Carmel-By-The-Sea

Meet us in San Jose, CA. Head out to bicycle one of the most famous roads in the region: iconic 17-Mile Drive. Stunning coastal vistas unspool as we ride past Pebble Beach’s fabled mansions and golf course, through pine forest, and along the oceanfront, passing the reefs and tide pools of Bird Rock, the white sands of breathtaking Fanshell Beach, and the famed Lone Cypress tree. Watch for deer, black cormorants, brown pelicans, and California sea lions. Spend tonight at the Pine Inn or Tradewinds in Carmel-by-the-Sea, where Clint Eastwood once held office as mayor. 

29.9 mi. +1453 ft. / -1196 ft.

День 2

Pedal the weathered coastline from Carmel-by-the-Sea to the community of Big Sur

Pedal the weathered coastline from Carmel-by-the-Sea to the community of Big Sur. Follow the dramatic knolls and tumbled rock headlands of the Cabrillo Highway (aka Highway One): enormous live oaks, green-and-gold hillsides, pale sand dunes and the blue Pacific Ocean. Ride across Bixby Bridge, a historic open-spandrel arch bridge that brought automobile travel to Big Sur. Finish cycling early in the afternoon. Relax at the hotel or take advantage of one the amazing hikes at Pfeiffer Big Sur State Park. Stay tonight at Fernwood Resort.  

30.7 mi. +2234 ft. / -2320 ft. 

День 3

Ride south from Big Sur to Ragged Point on the most spectacular, rugged, and remote section of the central California coastline

Ride south today from Big Sur to Ragged Point on the most spectacular, rugged, and remote section of the central California coastline. The road is carved into the seaside cliffs and a new stunning seascape opens up around every corner. It’s a long day so you may want a boost over the first (or last) climb. This is not a problem at all – just let your guides know. Whatever transportation you choose the vistas are unforgettable! Contemplate the end of a great day with cliff-top cuisine and a great view at Ragged Point Inn. 

50.2 mi. +5315 ft. / -5117 ft. 

День 4

Enjoy a rest day in Ragged Point

Take the day off to enjoy more of the views from “on high” before we descend from Ragged Point tomorrow. Spend time relaxing, watching the water for whales or enjoying the area on a short, easy walk from the inn, or hike one of the more challenging trails like the Cliffside Trail to a waterfall, or explore the solitude of the Baldwin Ranch Trail which heads back up into the hills. In addition, we will offer a shuttle (or you can cycle, of course) back up the coast to the highway closure at Lime Kiln State Park to explore the trails, the beach and the historic lime kiln. Lunch is on your own either today or on day seven.

День 5

Rolling coastal hills, Hearst Castle, an elephant seal beach, and delightful Cambria.

South of Ragged Point, a swath of rolling hills guards the coastline from the steep mountains and the road runs closer to the water. Pause to visit one of only two beaches in California where elephant seals come ashore in late fall to mate and teach their young to swim. After lunch by the beach, enjoy a guided tour of journalism baron William Randolph Hearst's opulent home in San Simeon - Hearst Castle. Lodging is at Cambria’s Rigdon House, a historic boutique hotel. Dinner is on your own tonight. 

24.1 mi. +972 ft. / -1257 ft.

День 6

Cycle though Morro Bay on your way to Pismo Beach and dig your toes into the sand!

Today's ride is a variety show with sweeping curves of coastline punctuated by surfers and beachgoers. Rolling fields and pastures are dotted with live oaks, racehorses, and cowboys. While the mileage is longer, the hills aren't as challenging as they were along Big Sur. Enjoy a seaside picnic in Morrow Bay before continuing south to the white sands of Pismo Beach, the halfway point between San Francisco and Los Angeles. Go for a swim or just soak up the sun by the surf. Enjoy beachfront lodging and dining at SeaVenture Beach Hotel, the only hotel and restaurant (literally) on Pismo Beach! 

48.3 mi. +1737 ft. / -1773 ft.

День 7

Finish the tour with a peaceful inland ride on country roads past the vineyards of Edna Valley outside San Luis Obispo.

Wind (“wine?”) down with a peaceful inland ride on country roads past the vineyards of Edna Valley outside San Luis Obispo. Known predominantly for its Chardonnays and Pinot Noirs – stop for a taste of the region’s finest and make a toast to a wonderful week. Have lunch on your own at a market restaurant outside town while we load bikes for the drive back to San Jose (about 3.5 hours, traffic depending). Or say goodbye at the San Luis Obispo airport if you're departing the tour from there.

19 mi. +1333 ft. / -1145 ft.

Детали тура

Размещение / проживание

Our regional expertise, a constant re-evaluation of last year's inns, and a continuing search for the best experience ensure that our lodging is always among the finest the area has to offer. By limiting the number of guests on each trip, we expand our choices and are able to fit into some smaller, award-winning bed and breakfasts and country inns that wouldn't be able to accommodate a larger group.

Lodging is based upon two people sharing a room with a private bath. If you're traveling solo on any of our trips and you're open to sharing a room with another solo traveler of the same gender, you pay 50% of the single supplement fee up front. If we are able to assign you a roommate, that fee is refunded to you. You can guarantee a private room and bath if you pay the full Single Supplement Fee. Occasionally, a room with two beds consists of one bed plus a rollaway bed or sofa bed. Call our office to see if this is applicable to the trip and date you select.


Транспорт

You are welcome to ride in the van at any time - no explanation required. Some want a lift for just a few miles; others have ridden in the van for the entire trip. It's your vacation - you decide.

We use a fleet of specially ordered and customized 15-passenger vans. Most have a seven-liter V-10 engine, high rear axle ratio, and heavy-duty trailer towing package for efficiently moving a van full of people pulling a large trailer full of luggage and food. Each van also has heavy-duty professional bicycle racks on top of a custom-made, steelwork platform on the roof.

Питание

All meals except for one lunch and one dinner are included in the cost of your tour. On the days that you're on your own for a meal, there will be ample options within walking distance of our location. 

At Bicycle Adventures we like to eat well. Dinner is eaten together at the best restaurant in the area each night. If we have to shuttle everyone a short distance to get to that special place, we do it. At most restaurants, you order what you want from the menu. Except for alcohol, everything is included, even appetizers, salad, soup, and dessert. Breakfast is typically provided by the hotels and inns that we stay at, but if there's a local spot known for great breakfast, we'll find it and you'll be treated to a nutritious meal to start your day. Lunch is provided at a state park or similar scenic setting midway during the day’s ride. Guests are always surprised at the variety and quality of lunches we prepare. Besides sandwich fixings and cold drinks, we offer fresh fruits and vegetables and hot lunches such as tortellini with pesto or veggie burritos. If you prefer a certain item of food or drink, just let your tour guide know and we will be sure to prepare just the right lunch to keep your energy up for the rest of the day.

During the day water, fruit juices, soft drinks, energy bars, fruit, and snacks are available from the van. A cold beer from our cooler waits at the end of the day, and you can relive the day’s highlights at our wine and cheese party before dinner.

Гид

Our guides are selected and trained for unparalleled personal service. Their backgrounds vary, but all share a love for the outdoors and, most importantly, a desire to help people make the most of their vacation. There are several ski instructors, a political analyst, an Emmy-winning journalist, and a college professor, among others. Almost all are college graduates. All are mature adults with expertise in leading our tours and extensive knowledge of the region we travel through. Almost all of last year's guides will be returning to lead our trips again, so you can count on having experienced leaders who love what they do.
