But I recall it being real direct through Lompoc, I think there was just one turn in Lompoc then one again on the outskirsts where one highway went East and Hwy 1 went south.
A right turn coming into town on the 1, left down at Ocean, and another right about a mile further to follow 1 south. All well marked, if you're paying attention.
It's a good ride and fun to do. Do take a bright rear tail light because fog sometimes gets thick, and I think you have to go through a tunnel on 101, but can't recall if the tunnel was before or after the 1 because I ridden both parts of the 101.
You've got a tunnel northbound on the 101 just before the 1 exits, but no tunnel southbound. The road is narrow and curvy going down the creek, though.
