West Coast ride this summer, NW Olympic Peninsula to San Diego. I'd like to leave right after Spring Quarter ends at UW with a group of three to five. I am riding solely for experience and exploration. I have never attempted a ride on this scale and I don't know what to anticipate or where to start (apart from a Mountaineers book "Cycling the Pacific Coast). Is anyone intersted or can anyone point me in a helpful direction (advice, personal experience, orginizations, etc.)? Thanks Robert Tyree .
