You can't have a problem thru Oregon - Pks are BEAUTIFUL all the way to Calif.
I would continue on 101 and thru the Redwood Giants once at almost any junction you could head east to I-5 However I would head down toward S.F. on 101
I have never taken Hwy1 for any length - sometimes apparently, they get wash outs? Cant attest to that.
I would stay N. of S.F. and take day trips. Stayed in Novato - simple park.
tour to Sausalito - cute town. Take Larkspur ferry to S.F.- Find stop for Chinatown & take cable car passes Golden G. Bridge & Alcatraz. Be sure to have a meal on the boardwalk.
I would then carry S. from Novato ACROSS the G.G. bridge.
Look for the turn off to #1 - great Pk at Half Moon Bay. You can follow #1 all the way down to Santa Cruz. Stay on #1 -to 101 UNLESS you want to go to Monterey.
Not sure how the Coast #1 is - so we went back to 101 to San Luis Obispo and down to - Pismo Beach ( nice RV Pk at Pismo)ETC. Down to Buellton (RV Pk here) AND VISIT SOLVANG - FOR SURE. I would then look to get out to #5. Many might say don't use 5 - I have never had a problem. I would head south on 5 to Chula Vista - one of the nicest RV parks here & you can tour the zoo and many other sights - Chula Vista RV & Marina - HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.
Enough for now - We will head East next.
