Cycling from Standish Hickey to Mackericher - Pacific Coast Highway Tour

It felt good to get underway again! The new rear wheel proved to be fine (after a tree fell on my old one), in fact, it seemed to travel faster than the previous one. The chain needs changing though to match the new cassette.
Not much to report today. There were a couple of reasonably challenging sections, and a lot of mist, so views were limited. At a grocery store in Westport, I caught sight of a poster that offered an excorcism. A bit weird !!
