As noted in our Summer Bike Buzz newsletter (https://bikemonterey.org/bike-buzz-summer-2024-news-from-bicycling-monterey.html), because of safety concerns due to increased traffic during the #Automotive Week events (https://pebblebeachconcours.net/event-calendar/), #bicycling is temporarily restricted in Pebble Beach on Saturday and Sunday, August 17-18, 2024.
