After pedaling through the streets of San Francisco, the route heads west down the picturesque California coastline on Highway 1. The coastal trek will find the riders flanked by the magnificent Pacific Ocean on one side and towering Redwood forests on the other. Along the way, they%u2019ll encounter a couple of long, moderate climbs on Tunitas Creek Road and Bonny Doon Road followed by lengthy, rip-roaring descents.
