Following week is Memorial Day. Sad face. Definitely want to do this ride - but all the mountain passes should be open by the first weekend of June...jussssayinnnn Quote

Member Contributer RC1237V Posted May 19, 2016 Member Contributer Posted May 19, 2016 Coast ridge road is a bit rough for most street bikes. I have been ridden it from South to north five times in the last two years on my DRZ. On a clear day, you can see from the coast to the Sierras. The area you will be on is more traveled than the southern end, and I have seen two groups of BMW's and a few multistradas up there. Also see minivans from time to time. Last ride was mid April, and the first mile or so was fine dust, and then the next few miles to Prewitt Ridge are marbley, but doable. Have fun, and enjoy the views! Quote
