Popular Post ChrisL Posted July 7, 2018 Popular Post Share #1 Posted July 7, 2018 Ride report in one word, HOT! Only did 20 miles and had a looong mid ride cool down break. It was well over 100 and a dry heat at that along the coast which is unusual. WOChrisL was having difficulty with the heat and the rout was hillier than expected so we cut the ride shorter than planned. Still a fun ride and very scenic. The ride was from Shell Beach just north of Pismo to Avila Beach and back. 8 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Part of the ride cut inland through a canyon about a mile and I'm guessing it was 105 to 110. My car read 102 when we parked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's usually windy near the coast but it wasn't too windy. We planned the route so we started the ride into the wind and ride back with a tailwind. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Page Turner Posted July 8, 2018 Share #10 Posted July 8, 2018 ...I have always liked the town of Pismo Beach. My wife got sent there for a California State training seminar once, and I got a week by shift trading to go stay with her . It's been there long enough that it still has a lot of funky older tiny beach town houses, and it just reminds me of some of my favorite beach towns back east. Lucky it's a dry heat, huh ?

Pismo is a cool town. We had dinner in Cayucos just Nortb of Morro which is a cool little beach town. We had chowder at "Duckies Chowder House". Damn good chowdah!
