Cal's 1, RV's & bicyclists

Getting to the time of year where people are going to start asking about RV's on Highway 1 in North & Central California.

Ninety five percent of all bicyclists on the Pacific Coast Highway are going north to south to favor the prevailing winds. Northbound it would be rare to encounter a cyclist. There are a few places where there is no shoulder and the road is narrow. That is the exception, not the norm. Everybody can co-exist with a little understanding and courtesy even the logging trucks that are everywhere on that route especially between Eureka and Fort Bragg. The best thing any RVer can do is to know where the right side (passenger side) of their RV/tow vehicle is in the lane and unfortunately many do not. Or worse, driving down the road with the steps not retracted.
