62 mile day.
Routine in the morning, coffee and check emails…
This was a great place to stay. A secret place, highly recommend…. about 20 miles north of Santa Cruz.
First stop of the morning at a rest stop. It was chilly when we started, but warmed up nicely. Great view
Lighthouse in Santa Cruz. I changed the default route to one along the beach. Turned out to be a winner!
We passed the fun zone in Santa Cruz. Lots of different roller coaster right on the beach
Another view of the coasters
Our alternate path took us past the fun zone, but then had to walk out bikes across an old railroad bridge. I took this one of Paul towards the park…
Paul took this one towards the bridge.
After leaving the Santa Cruz area, you eventually run into the farming belt between Monterey and Santa Cruz
Our path took us down some remote roads through the farms
On our way to Marina CA, we came across these lawn arts at a leather store
Looks like a chopper
A best western for tonight’s stay
Salt Wood Kitchen across the street in the beach
Sitting at the bar for dinner…
At a nice restaurant …
The lawn art is right up your alley JV!
Lol, I need one for my yard.
Lousy internet last night, hopefully better tonight so I can update
morning coffee, checking email… sounds like married life
Electric bikes, great food and cocktails, I think you two have this figured out!
Looks like another great day on the “trail”
