Got one of my best days, yesterday. Slept in Pheifer Big Sur Park and road the 26 mi back to Monterey because I wanted cell phone coverage and south there is nothing for the next 90 miles. I followed Ocean Av and hit a very exclusive suburb of Monterey (Carlisle?) Spectacular beach, very chique shops. While looking for a croissant and a coffee I ran into Joseph and Sandy from Santa Barbara (met them the day before). The road south of Monterey is surely one of the most scenic and biker friendly that I did on the whole trip.
Talked for the first time in 2 months with some europeans, the mayor of the german twin city of Zolder, more germans, danish, dutch. 70% of the people on Highway 1 are europeans, and 30% of them drive a rented mustang convertible. Usd 1300 for 2 weeks.
But apart from some rented RV's, you will not meet them on the park campgrounds.
In Cambria, I parked the bike while looking for internet, and Paul come over for a talk. I told him I was a little worried to find storage for the bike... only 5 days left. He called over his wife and said.. Honey, we can store that bike, do we? So apparantly my problem is solved. They live in Orange County, LA
Stayed at the San Simeon state park, campground nearly empty. My lovely neighbours, 3 very well humoured ladies, brought me some vegetables and fruit. Generosity, generosity.. and again generosity
