Hello all,

In just over a month, my sister (Berkeley) and I (USC) will be graduating from law school. I have about 6.5-7 days between the end of my finals and the day I graduate. During this short week, I aspire to make the trek upstate to pay her a visit, however short it may be. Note: I will be flying back.

I google'd a bike friendly route from LA to SF. It appears this is ~475 miles. I am wondering if any of you have taken a similar trip and could perhaps offer any words of advice as to my route, or otherwise.
