no. most of pacific coast highway-aka pch, hwy 1, lincoln blvd (in stretches), sepulveda blvd (in stretches)-from ca hwy 27 topanga canyon road near malibu to the western edge of seal beach

is high speed/volume traffic with minimal or zero bike lanes, narrow and visually difficult for drivers. worst stretch is from eastern torrance to western long beach. this ugly, 10 mile stretch is much worse than

the much feared section thru laguna beach which is both shorter and scenic or the 1.5 mile "pinch" rolling through dtown newport beach.
