Hi all, a newbie here though I've often read bikeforums posts that come up in Google searches.
I'm curious if you can recommend good bike maps for the Bay Area peninsula (especially near the coast). I've bought good Marin, Sonoma/Napa, and East Bay bike maps from various sources in the past, but I'm curious about biking in the Pacifica / Montara / Half Moon Bay / Pescadero areas.
There are a lot of trails I see on some park maps or on Google maps, but it's often not clear which ones allow bikes at all, and also which ones are paved or smooth enough dirt to do on a touring bike w/ say 38mm slicks, vs. really wanting a mountain bike w/ suspension.
Thanks for any tips, and happy new year!
