Selecting a route for a bicycle tour
Hello,
I plan on possibly taking a bike tour from Santa Barbara California to Gilroy California this November. I know how to check on prevailing weather, and I'm a hardy fellow, so I have no problems camping out.
My problem arises when I seek to get a route. The map application on my tablet gives great advice for an expeditious route...for a car. I want a route that is scenic, safe, and has interesting places to visit etc.
How do you old salts find such a route?
Hopefully, somebody out there can give me some good ideas on how to get started.
