The Redwood Ride

THE PLAN:
To Ride bicycles from Brookings Oregon to San Francisco California, following the coastal route as much as possible. Camping and sampling the local beers from the breweries scattered along the way. Approximately 450 miles in 6 days of riding.
WHEN: The last week of May or the first week of June 2008.
WHO: 5 to 6 relatives and/or friends of The Hop Hunter. Including at least one person in support... driving and pulling a 25' travel trailer. Riders to include a LLLab Electrical Engineer/CAT2 racer, a NASCAR/SONOCO Fuel executive, one Terminix Regional Manager/Triathlete, a True Value Hardware Store Owner, a Ford master Mechanic and the Hop Hunter himself.
WHY: Because we can. Because it's epic. Because it is worthy and fun. It is also the 25th anniversary of The Hop Hunter and James initial cycling adventure that started in Crescent City and ended in Bodega Bay in 1983.
Stay tuned for updates on date revisions, rider changes and optional routes and climbs.
