El Chorro Regional Park - out of Guadalupe 41.8 miles (66.9 km)
6:30 I got up, left from El Chorro Regional Park at 7:00 am, because last night one guy told me this is a no biker's campgound, so everybody need to pay $ 19 per night, of course, I do not want to pay the price like this. I passed by the military camp, a lot of Hummers and helicopters and trucks . In SLO met a young guy who rode from SLO to San Diego before, he told me bad news, from LA to San Diego there is a very huge marin camp, last time he was prohibitted to cross the camp. I do not know what would happen at camp entrance. Out of SLO a couple of miles, there is an another winery ground, not as big as Sonoma, but the landscape is totally the same: sunshine, valley and grape. From Arroyo Grand I got on the wrong way about 6 km, very stupid! Tonight I can not get into any campgound, just camped at a place out of Guadalupe a couple of miles.

20 Nov 2009 Cambria - El Chorro Regional Park 32.5 miles (52 km)
Last night I stayed at a youth hostel, it is a really cool place, same as the other youth hostels in America, you must check out at 10:30 am. Today I rode pretty fast, I found the reason why I rode fast, because of the cycling clothing the Cambia bike shop gave me. Before my camera was always in my pocket, this clothing does not have pockets for me to carry the camera except for on the back ,so I do not need to stop to take photos so often. At Cayucos I saw so many surfing guys, this is the first time I have seen surfing in my life. At a gas station's market in Morro Bay, I met a worker who was 61 years old, he went to Vietnam to take place in that terrible war. He told me a lot of things about the war and gave me a lot of food for free, Thanks! Tonight I stayed at El Chorro Regional Park where opposite is an army camp, at night you could hear their drills, same as China? funny.
