West Coast Tour Planning Chaos
My daughter is doing an internship in South California starting mid-May and she wants to do a bike tour with me of around 2 weeks. She wanted to go to Washington and Oregon originally but we were advised it would be cold and rainy so we switched to California. A lot of the ones I see published will probably be too much elevation as we are from Florida but I don't know what we can handle or not. Then I thought maybe we can rent a car with bike racks and just drive around and do daily rides in places or not, if we get tired. However, I'm not sure that the rental places have a bike rack option. In short, I'm sort of all over the place with no real plan or even an idea of how to start. She has never toured and I've only done two overnighters. She wants to do hotels but I'd like to camp occasionally so there's that also. We have traveled a lot together (not on bicycles); we are flexible and adventurous. Any advice?
