Sacramento
Amtrak Station

This is a relatively easy four-daycamping Zodiac. Sag support will be provided. The Sag will be at the San Jose Amtrak station at 8:40 AM on July 12 to load camping gear for the ride. We ride from San Jose over the Santa Cruz mountains to Sunset Beach State Park. We then ride through Monterey to Big Sur Park, then Plaskett Creek campground, and finally Morro Bay State Campground. Friday we ride to San Luis Obispo. The Amtrak train leaves for Sacramento at 3:40 PM. It is suggested that you make reservations for the return trip from San Luis Obispo. Bikes must be boxed and checked as luggage. Another option is to use a one-way rental car for the return.
