Cool

Man, it’s been a while but I seem to recall that the last time I made the PCH run from Monterey in about ten hours. I guess another two or so to San Francisco.

A lot will depend on what time you go (relative to city traffic) and if you want to hang out anywhere along the way. Every town and region along the way is wonderful and worth checking out. Obviously, if you’re trying to get there on a schedule you’ll have to pick one or two to stop in and visit the rest another time.

Unfortunately, heading north through OC/LA on a weekend is always miserable unless you leave early. As much as I love cruising from OC to Oxnard on PCH, for the last few years we’ve been taking the 5 to Santa Clarita and cutting over to the coast on the 126 if we leave home any time after 11:30AM.

If I can actually get a real early start I like to hit the road, catch breakfast in Malibu, or better yet, Santa Barbara.
