Join us on the next "Bikes & Burritos" overnight bicycle tour: www.bicycletouringpro.com/cal... Sign up today!
This December, I organized the 5th ever Bicycle Touring Pro Bikes and Burritos overnight bike tour in Southern California… and 15 people from all across the state (and around the country) turned up to ride from the city of Camarillo, down the coast of the Pacific Ocean to the nearby Sycamore Canyon Campground in the city of Malibu.
Along the way we stopped at California State University Channel Islands, rode our bikes through the farm fields, onto the Pacific Coast Highway, past Mugu Rock, down the coastal blue waters, alongside hundreds of people camping in trailers and Rvs on the beach, and eventually made it to the state campground, where we would spend the next several minutes setting up our tents.
After everyone’s tents were set up, we walked from the campsite, down to the beach, just in time for a spectacular sunset. While we were there, we spotted large pelicans flying overhead and a pod of dolphins feeding on fish just a short distance from the shore.
Once it got dark, we returned to the campsite, just in time for our burrito dinner. As we ate, we sat around the campfire and talked with one another, well into the evening, before diving into our tents and using our new Bicycle Touring Pro beanies to keep our heads warm as we slept.
It was super cold in the morning, but as soon as we ate and the sun came out, we packed up our tents and prepared for the fantastic bike ride, back along the coast, through the farm fields and back to our starting location in the city of Camarillo.
Before reaching our destination, we cycled through a collection of homes decorated with animated characters, snowmen and reindeer, for the upcoming Christmas holiday.
Thank you so much to everyone who came out to this year’s Bikes & Burritos overnight bike tour… and if this looks like an experience you might like to try for yourself one day, consider signing up for one of the future Bicycle Touring Pro tours on the website at www.bicycletouringpro.com/calendar.
