The thought of driving Devil's slide used to fill motorists with fear, but now, you'll be able to walk or bike the new Devil's slide trail and see all the amazing views you were too scared to look at while you were behind the wheel!

Devil's Slide was named for the narrow, twisting road that hugged the steep side of the mountain that looms over a never ending view of the ocean...the drop, hundreds of feet to t...

Gov. Jerry Brown signed a bill on Monday that mandates that Motorists trying to pass bicycles on a regular roadway must give the riders at least a 3 foot berth. 

This bill does not allow motorists to cross a double yellow line; if there is not enough room to provide a three-foot buffer zone.  Instead motorists must slow to a safe and reasonable speed.  

Currently, under existing law it’s not illegal to injure a bicyclist with a car.  However, th...

One of the most glorious and enchanting things you can do while you are here at Pillar Point, is take the bike path south, toward Half Moon Bay.

Follow the path south along the ocean and get on the old road that runs past Mira Mar Restaurant.    As you follow the road, it will turn into a bike path again.  You will pass several unique looking homes, including one that houses the Ocean Studio which is an alliance of filmmakers...

BIKE TRICKS ON
THE JETTY

Pillar Point RV Park is right on the Pacific Ocean.  There's a jetty that runs in front of and perpendicular to the RV park.  It provides some beautiful moments of crashing waves, a scenic spot for photographs, a place to fish and catch crab.  One use that never came to my mind was trick bike riding!  These guys are not part of any club or performing group, they are just local guys who get together on ...
