Seasonal note

What to expect this season

Mornings can start cool, coastal afternoons can turn windy, and lights are worth carrying year-round.

  • Start coastal routes earlier than you think. Wind typically builds into the afternoon.
  • Carry lights even for daytime rides if your route uses shaded valleys or fog-prone corridors.
  • Wave, call your passes, and leave trailheads cleaner than you found them.
