The Ride the West - South tour will begin in San Francisco. Departing San Francisco, you will see some beautiful views of the ocean and enjoy the sights of Santa Cruz, Monterey and the famous 17 Mile Drive through Carmel. We will head inland to Carmel Valley. See a diverse part of the state, with a stop in Solvang - known for its Scandinavian motif. From there it is back to the coast through Santa Barbara, Malibu and Santa Monica.
