The trip was a Success. People were friendly.
9 days cycling. Everyday was pure adventure!

Thanks all!

Our mechanic plugged in a new fork, and tuned Houdini!

0 flats on "Bontrager" Tires.
[possibly "0 flats" for life of the tire].

Sugio cycling wear was classy!
"very breathable,simply amazing".

Which Bontrager tires? Nebula???
Great pictures! Very artistic and makes us want to haul the tandem out for a ride. We love that Pacific Coast... well most of it anyway. (Very smoky down in So. Cal. with fires and Santa Anna winds).

Have you done any riding on coast roads on the Mediterranean Sea?
I've heard stories from people who rode on the Pacific coast of USA, and stories from people who've cycled along the Mediterranean -- but not a comparison from someone who's ridden both. Be nice to get ideas about which region is better for what sorts of bicycle-touring aspects.

As the US dollar drops, the Pacific coast looks like an option to consider. Or is the strategy to enjoy the famous Mediterranean coast roads now, and wait for the dollar to drop more?
