Pacific Grove, California

The View From My Bicycle

Pacific Grove, California is a gorgeous seaside community in Northern California squeezed between Monterey and Pebble Beach. I had been on a TV production assignment at the Pebble Beach Concourse D'Elegance and took an extra couple of days to actually enjoy the setting that I had been working in for the previous week.

I rented a bike and rode it along the four mile bike path from downtown Monterey down to the Point Pinos Lighthouse. I stopped along the way of this gorgeous stretch of the Pacific Ocean to take lots of photos from the view from my bicycle.

I love this perfect view from my bicycle of the wooden park bench overlooking the sea that makes me want to pack a picnic lunch, pull out a good book, and spend the day soaking up the Pacific Grove, California sunshine.

Cycling has become a new passion for me so I now love renting a bike (if I can't bring my own). I rediscovered bicycle riding last summer after spending a day on a rental bike cycling through Yosemite National Park with my nephew, Tyler, and niece, Alexis. After that trip, I purchased a hybrid Diamondback Insight bicycle and now have over 1600 miles on it in less than nine months.
