Thanks Normie for letting me stay at your place for a couple of days! Sorry that all I could do for you was let you into Costco to get free samples and let you pretend you're riding my bike:
So I left them to their free samples and blasted down the highway towards San Juan Bautista, where the church from "Vertigo" is (this has been a big Hitchcock tour as well). Along the way I noticed an unusually large amount of bikes around me. Everywhere, going every direction. I pulled into San Juan Bautista and found this on the main street:
"One of these things just doesn't belong here!!!"But I noticed a bike with a Canadian Flag hanging off the back - It's Dave and Andrea who have come down from Port Alberni!
They explained that there's a huge rally in Hollister, down the road, with over 250,000 bikes!!! Wow. They suggested I go check it out, but not wanting to get lynched by Harley guys, I went the other way to Monterey and ran into the total opposite bike crowd:
It was a Ducati Meet celebrating the Moto GP race next week! Coool.So then I headed down the coast highway, knowing it was closed 30 miles down - it was worth it for the amazing vistas:
Cool picture, huh?And here's as far as I got:
It was about 150miles to detour around this 60 mile stretch, but you don't get stuck being tourists doing 35mph so I figured it took about the same amount of time.
