Bicycling in Pebble Beach is temporarily restricted Saturday and Sunday, August 16-17, 2025 due to Concours d'Elegance. Also, although not restricted Monday through Friday, August 11-15, Pebble Beach Company does not recommend biking inside Pebble Beach on those five dates as well.

Watch out for big trucks! Monterey County roads will see many more around August 8-17, hauling cars for โCar Week.โ Our Summer Bike Buzz https://bikemonterey.org/bike-buzz-summer-2025-news-from-bicycling-monterey.html updates include a reminder about Cycling Savvyโs tips on โThe 6 Things You Need to Knowโ to stay clear of a truckโs danger zones. https://cyclingsavvy.org/what-cyclists-need-to-know-about-trucks/

In our โResources on Riding Skills, Bike Laws, and Safetyโ section https://bikemonterey.org/resources/resources-on-riding-skills-bike-laws-and-safety is a list of resources we have created, as well as resources from others.
Among the latter is #BikeLeagueโs new video series โ Camiones Grandes y Bicicletas / Big Trucks and Bikes. https://bikeleague.org/new-video-series-big-trucks-and-bikes-educating-truck-drivers-to-save-lives/ It is dedicated to the memory of Sarah Debbink Langenkamp, a U.S. diplomat who had been safely evacuated from Ukraine in summer 2022, then killed weeks later while biking home in Bethesda, Maryland. https://www.npr.org/2022/11/18/1137817706/she-was-a-diplomat-in-ukraine-when-war-came-in-a-u-s-suburb-a-truck-took-her-lif

@ascentale @cpm @bikenite #BikeNite A7 - Re: bike parking, perhaps of interest are BIKE PARKING and related resources in bullet list at top of https://bikemonterey.org/resources/bicycle-advocacy-what-you-can-do.
Here in California, among ways we advocate for better bicycle parking is through actions such as this July 17 stand with California Bicycle Coalition and 16 other #CalBike local partners: https://www.calbike.org/calbike-insider-updating-bike-parking-in-green-building-codes/

@clhenrick #BikeNite Yes to what Chris said about built environment and "cyclist trying to make things safer for themself, like getting in front of traffic at a red light so they are seen.โ We were showing a teen we were coaching this week some local bike boxes at traffic signals, and stressed need for far more. We also went over with the teen (and include in our https://bikemonterey.org/resources/resources-on-riding-skills-bike-laws-and-safety) How to Not Get Hit by Cars by https://bicyclesafe.com/

Bike riding in Monterey and Pebble Beach
We did a very nice tri-club bike ride on Sunday starting in Monterey (CA) heading south along the coast past Pacific Grove and into the Pebble Beach area along 17 Mile Drive and turning around at the iconic Lone Cypress as seen in the photo.
This part of the CA coast is spectacular with its rocky beaches intermixed with white sand. Along the route you pass two of the famous Pebble Beach golf courses, Spyglass Hill and Spanish Bay. And of course there are the houses. Youโre either awed or appalled at their Hurst Castle-like gaudy excessiveness.

May 2025 is the 16th Anniversary of Bicycling Monterey, Monterey Countyโs Local Partner of the California Bicycle Coalition / #CalBike.
Our favorite #BikeAdvocacy task is direct outreach by bicycle! The 16th anniv gallery https://bikemonterey.org/16th-anniversary-gallery-bicycling-monterey-may-2025.html is a sampling of people we met each of the past 16 years.
Among them: #PeopleWhoBike for #transportation, recreation, who bike to #protest rallies, bike to #FarmersMarkets, bike to #surf, #BikeToSchool and #BikeAndRide for a #DadAndDaughter date, #BikeToWork (and yes, pedaling in a business #suit is no problem for him), #HandCycle bike to exercise the #dog, bike to #travel long distances / #BicycleTouring.
