WILL CREEK ROAD South of Big Sur (100% dirt roads)

ROUTE This will be our planned route.

The California Central Coast region is world renowned as one of the most scenic parts of the entire west coast. Imagine an even better view than the coast highway has to offer. A road where there is no tour buses in front of you & no sports car riding your rear end on the tight curves. Well, we’ll be riding some of these back roads as we visit Cambria and the Willow Creek area.
This is the second of a two day event. This one will be in the Willow Creek area 36 miles north of Cambria. We’ll be on a steep but well groomed dirt road for this ride.
The scenery along this ride will be worth our struggles along the way. Just make sure you have experience with long steep grades. I’ve added a photo above, showing the steepness and condition of the dirt road that we will be riding on. I’ll be taking alot of brakes on the way up to make it tolerable and to enjoy the views this ride offers.

Make sure you have green slime or FlatOut in your inner tubes to avoid flats.
