Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

Big Sur Marathon and Hwy 1 closure

Hi all

The Big Sur Marathon is April 30, 2006. Cal Hwy Patrol will close Hwy 1 from at least Big Sur Village to Carmel which will drastically limit traffic on the southern section as well. Does anyone know how far north on Hwy 1 you can drive as I would like to be dropped at Ventana and ride south to San Luis Obispo area that day. I can't seem to find the closure point at the south end of the Marathon route. Thnx
