It's either me or be stuck behind a Prius or Subaru at the same speed with those folks refusing to pull over for hours lol. I know it's a tall order. Thanks for the motivation ha
For some people the slightest curve or hill discourages them from taking an RV places including PCH Ragged Point through Big Sur. For others they just do it. Ninety- nine percent of bicyclists are going north to south to avail themselves of the prevailing wind, they will be no issue for you going north. And virtually all motorcycles will not be any factor for you, either, as they simply want to get on up the road and are not a hindrance to anybody. Believe the naysayers if you want or just go do it. My only suggestion is to be sure you know where your wheels are around corners especially the front truck wheels to give you the most room in the lane for cornering with the fifth. Other than that -- go for it. If you want to worry about it, Caltrans has a website with max lengths allowed on state highways. You might check into this segment. Google 'Caltrans maximum vehicle lengths on state highways'. If I recall trucks are limited to 65 feet long between Carmel and San Simeon. But, check it out the map and corresponding color coded descriptions are interesting.
