OWHLY?
This ride will explore coastal hard-pack public roads on the Big Sur coast, culminating in some proper Big Sur restaurant action.
The ride will be down route 1 then cutting off into the camp roads that garnish the coast. I have ridden half of the roads we will be exploring, and I would not be afraid to take a street bike with street tires on them. Last time the dirt was as hard as an office carpet. The biggest challenge will be corduroys in the uphill parts, but if you can maintain while standing on your pegs and shaking, you can deal with those. The rest is hard pack double-track, so plenty of room to froth around on your Diablo Rossa Doucha Corsoduros... fruitcake!
Rain cancels the event due to nature of the roads.

So far ride has 6 people going from Facebook event. Meet point will be the Chit-Chat cafe on Manor Drive in Pacifica at 9:00-9:30 for coffee and coffee cake. Kickstands up at 9:30.
http://www.bigsurcamp.com has agreed to have us as a walk-in. They still have an opening in a two bedroom cabin with a kitchen and living room, and also plenty of tent camping sites. I coerced her into lifting her two night minimum for Saturday so we can just roll in on Saturday all dirty and fucked up and get a place for the night. The cabins are pretty pricey, $450, but if enough people come it will be similar to the price of a hotel. If not, we can rough it for sure.
Group 1 - (people returning home) can turn around at Bixby Bridge when we hit our first dirt leg.
Group 2 - (people staying but only riding street) can continue down RT1 and meet the dirt group at Big Sur Camp.
Group 3 - (people with genitalia) will hit up Old Coast, pictured, and then the camp, and second dirt leg, Coast Ridge Road which is a dead end
