Kate,
Just came down coast from Rio Rd to Palo Colorado. Lots of straggling Arthritis Foundation bicycles on the road. Quite a few stopped at look outs. NO sign of law enforcement OR ride officials.
These are not experienced bicyclists, so Heads UP Folks! I sensed danger and they have another day to go.
Oh, boy. Thanks for that report.
