Looking for a little advice - has anyone out there cycled the PCH from Vancouver to San Francisco ?
We have a support vehicle - so don't need to carry much kit, if we don't need to carry much,
should we use MTB or Racer ?
We are all proficient on both - so it basically comes down to the quality of the roads - we are planning to use blacktop all the way and stick to the coast road......
Any Advice? - thanks in advance
Mike

Use a mountain bike of course. Racers as you put it are rubbish, so are road bikes for that matter.0

Road riding sucks but if you are riding on roads the road bikes are much better than mountain bikes.
A road bike will be loads faster and less effort.Transition Patrol - viewtopic.php?f=10017&t=130702350 -
I've just come back from that very trip though on a tandem. Road bikes will be best. It's all paved and good quality tarmac.0
