OK, I'm in
Big Sur is on my list and I know I would regret it if I didn't make it happen now.
I plan to Amtrak down to Salinas in the next 2 weeks and be at Rat Creek on the 30th (or a day or 2 before with hopes of inadvertently crossing through the construction zone after work hours)
Any recommendations on a website that lists bicycle campsites along the way? How long are the stretches with no grocery stores? I only do about a third as many miles per day as I did 40 years ago.
