Navigating This Site
So many tech chores, so little time—for biking, that is, if I were to tend to everything on this site that I’d like to.
Meanwhile, if you can’t find what you’re looking for, please contact me (831-375-6278). As mentioned on Be a Community Reviewer, I welcome your suggestions. Page load speed, categorizing of posts, and overall site navigation are on my to-do list. Any WordPress savvy people out there with time on their hands are welcome to contact me!

General guidelines for navigating
Above the “Bicycling Monterey” banner, several category names are shown. Click on any of those for posts from that category.
Below the banner are pages. Think of that as more “permanent” info.
On the sidebar (at right), you’ll find various items, including the Tips for Tourists Bicycling Monterey County guide, with its 20 individual sections immediately visible. (You can also access the guide by clicking on the page by that name below the banner.)

To search, try the usual:
Let’s say you want to know if there’s a hostel in Monterey County. Find it fast:
- Type “hostel” in this site’s search window.
- Some post titles will pop up. Click on the first (or any) title.
- Then, type “hostel” in your browser’s find window.
- Voila! You have hostel info.
Use quotation marks for phrases:
As usual, putting a phrase in quotation marks often gets better search results. For example, if you type “accommodations show” in the search window, you’ll get the post, “How Monterey County’s Accommodations Show It’s a Cycling Friendly Place.” Type those same two words without the quotation marks, and that post won’t come up.
