I'm still looking for ideas, but I know its time for me to hit the road.

Don, i'd never heard of the Lincoln HW until you said it, and I looked it up:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lincoln_Highway

it sounds great! I will do some more reading on it.
Now the Bigsur area, I spent 10 years exploring that area, I was based near SantaCruz.
But it getting close to the time i feel that I should maybe wander some.
Mike

Lincoln Highway vs Route 66 ....
... I think this pic is the one spot in the US where the Lincoln Highway crosses Route 66, (Joliet, Il.)

I live in LowerCal forever so I've ridden my harley back and forth along 66 out here in the west a lot, and it is beautiful, lonely, and long (perfect!)
but comparing the Lincoln and 66, which one of these two roads is the best to meander across towards the other side ? :

LINCOLN:

66:
