Have fun!
I did Monterey to Santa Barbara year before last. I second staying at Kirk Creek - nice place. Thee are three state campgrounds almost to Santa Barbara - Refugio is the nicest. looks like McGrath just South of Ventrua is closed. If it's open, don't stay there unless absolutely necessary. It is run down. The campground host stated that he had his bike stolen there. Big Sur, Morrow Bay and San Luis Obispo are all worth spending some time in. Hearst Castle is closed right now I hear.
Are hiker-biker sites open?
