The Pacific Coast Bicycle route a journey from Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, and the arrival was in San Diego, in the United States. The tour covered three states of the United States: Washington, Oregon and California.


We left Vancouver heading southbound on the July, 03. Oregon had some cold and rainy days. But by the time we reached California in July it was very hot!!


The route is a cycle path that runs along the coastal coast breathtaking views of the Pacific Ocean including dramatic scenery of the rugged shoreline of the Oregon coast to the wavy sand dunes to the clear beaches, ranging from the spectacular cliffs of Big Sur to the wide beaches of Southern California's white sands, at The Redwood National and State Parks home of the world's tallest trees and covered with a magnificent forest of coastal redwood trees and so many fun sights to see along the way.


The internal landscape can be seen with views of farms, agricultural land, the up and down topography of the hills are images of a unique landscape.



Total days of touring: June, 03 -  July, 03

Total day pedaling: 30 Days

Our journey was almost 3000 kilometres.


An Incredible journey and an amazing adventure!


The Pacific Coast Cycling Route?


For our trip, we purchased a cycling map from Adventure Cycling Association but we sometimes changed our journey to open up to new possibilities and discover new roads. In all my bike rides I follow my own path: it will always be an authentic and an unexpected addition new roads. 


What kind of weather I encounterd?

The journey has been with days of weather changes: winds, sun, rain, fog, heat, cold and so frequent occurrences occur during the day. The influence of the ocean makes every moment an interesting experience. It’s so unbelievable that the constant transformations of time that lead you to cover up or remove different types of clothing seems just like making a fashion show on the street!


What I did like?

The flora and fauna wary widely and the isolated peace to cycle through the Ave Of The Giants was fantastic. Our trip gave us a unique, magical feeling. Yes, just an extraordinary feeling of being so small in the forest!


Where was my accomadations?

In our experiences in all the places where we stayed for the night, locals gave us courtesy and respect.


What was my itinerary?

 It was just the enthusiasm of reaching the goal of the journey and all the types of climate changes and the beautiful vistas brought us to San Diego!


What can I say more? 

I loved it from the beginning to the end of our journey excepting only some heavy automobile traffic in some parts of the route.
