Hi all, wasnt sure if anyone would be interested.
I'm planning to go to PCH 1 myself and probably stay one night around March or early April.
The route would be from San Jose to San Luis Obispo via 101/46 and take Hwy. 1 @ Cambria to Lucia or Big Sur before the bridge (either stay there for a night or have lunch) and head to Carmel to Salinas. and from Salinas will take 68 to 101 North back to San Jose.
