We drove from Santa Barbara up the coast on highway 101 yesterday, great day for driving, with all
the wind and rain, bikes got soaked, but I staid dry....
For years I have thought that a vacation going from Mission to Mission would be interesting, and now
that I would do it on a bicycle I think the idea has even more merit, and my wife agrees, so it's
time to start some planning. I think this will happen in stages,a weekend at a time, since we can't
take so much as a week off together, for a while yet.. First would be from home, 6 blocks from
Mission San Rafael up to Sonoma, then down to Mission Dolores in San Francisco. Both should make
suitable day trips and I know the routes.
From there we drive south for a way and do similar. Start at one and ride to the next and maybe even
another, stay the night and return.
Has anyone done a similar ride? Any suggestions for best time of year, or better when to avoid,
what are the best Missions to visit South of San Jose. Any tour guides, books or web sites that
would help out?
Thanks for any suggestions
