mev Thanks for the input- I will take you up immediately on that one about larger distances between lodgings/campgrounds etc. Sounds like a damn good idea that.

Tourist in MSN Thanks for your ideas..! I leave on May 31st mate and start cycling on the 4th June. I've more or less got my kit sorted top to bottom but will take your suggestion to refine and reduce- cheers..!

Roughstuff Cheers man- totally agree- I've got loads of memories like that aswell. It feels like some memories blend into a conglomerate and it's hard to pick them apart specifically..! Best of luck for your AC Route..!

gugie Goddamn that looks STUNNING. That EXACTLY the type of scenery I want to soak in whilst I cycle thru. Honestly looks like Heaven on Earth to me. And aye- a bummer about part of the Big Sur route as that was a specific part I wanted to see..! I'll get as close as I can..!
