Riding in Northern California provides many chances to visit the Pacific Ocean. While it has been hot here in Silicon Valley the coast has been cool. On this ride I rode out to Capitola and headed further south down the coast. There are lot of beaches to stop and take in the view. New Brighton State Beach used to be a Chinese fishing village back in the 1850s to the 1890s. The Chinese Exclusion Act of 1882 ended that. Now it is a state park with camping sites.
I headed further down to the stawberry fields of Watsonville before turning around for the return ride.
