Highway 101 to Watsonville (Near Monterey) Ride September 19, 2015

I had nothing to do this morning so I decided to jump on the bike and ride down to the Pacific Coast Highway. Instead of heading directly over I took Highway 101 down to Highway 129 and crossed over to Highway 1 (PCH) which was fun. Very busy day on the road. I passed a big rig on the 680 that was burnt to a crisp and this had traffic backed up pretty bad so I had to split lanes for a few miles to get past the mess. Once on the 101 it was a nice ride to the 129 and even better on the 129 out to Highway 1. I also got to ride a little dirt. I only stopped once to take a few pictures of my bike next to the crops growing in Watsonville but I think they turned out well.
