Written Directions

Enjoy scenic Highway 1 (Cabrillo) until you get to Pescadero State Beach then head East on Pescadero Creek Road. Follow the road through Loma Mar, La Honda (84) and finally get to Alice's for a well-deserved meal.

Scenery

The scenery varies but it is mostly a two-lane road in the woods, with very high trees providing shade and a creek along the way.

Drive Enjoyment

Just resurfaced, fresh asphalt (10/31/15) with lots of twists and turns for the duration of the trip.

Tourism Opportunities

It's a short route but there is a gas station at the beginning (in Pescadero) and at the end (Alice's Restaurant)

Motorcycle Road Additional info

This is my special place. You will find tons of bikers of all kinds along the way that all then stop at Alice's Restaurant. The fresh asphalt and single lane per direction makes me feel back at home in Italy.

Really a fun area. I can ride all day through the many different side roads. Excellent eats on both ends. The mountains and the ocean are beautiful. One can see Silicon Valley on one side of Hwy 9 and the Pacific Ocean on the other. Watch out for deer! Definitely hit Alice's, locals hit AJ's (Apple Jack's) just down the road in La Honda. If you're real lucky, you'll enjoy some live music from Neil Young (or now just his estranged wife) or Tracy Chapman, who live just up the road.

Fun, easy ride through the Coast Redwoods & PCH. Start and/or end at Alice's Restaurant for great food and all the camaraderie you could want from fellow riders and automotive enthusiasts. Can also grab good food & coffee in Pescadero!

One of my favorite Norcal rides. Start w/ breakfast or lunch at Alice's Restaurant then enjoy a nice twisty road through the redwood trees taking you into some nice sweepers in the coastal horse country and then to the PCH. What more could you want from a CA ride???
