Huntington Beach. Surfboards, beach cruisers, joggers, high end carbon
bikes; about five miles of public space sand.
Oatmeal at Jamba Juice. Quite good. No coffee here but cold water seems
better.
The flatness abruptly ends and the PCH starts to roll again. Steeper hills
(or legs and body more tired? ), higher hills in general (gps). Not nearly
as pretty as inland and through busy (bike lanes generally disappear in
towns) communities.
BBQ Ham and Swiss for a protein lunch. Just before Dana Point. Woman next
to me was a perfect Beach Boys blond, a multicaret ring, a Vuiton bag and
Prada shoes. She was discussing how prices have just not come down enough
yet!
Ride through San Clemente is circuitious but has good bike route markings.
Another hot and high liquid day.
Thanks to Libby found the most West os Pendleton hotel. Comfort Inn, low
priced, breakfast, pool and hot tub. Laundry too.
Wanted to go further but thought better of it. Getting to Oceanside would
mean a 65 plus mile day of hills. Suspect I could have made it, but to what
end? Stopped, showered, put my legs up, and pulled out my e-reader.
Dinner was a picnic. Did not feel like eating in the local places. A
supermarket was only 1.5 miles away.
