I've happened to ride a lot of the same roads in Ventura and SLO that he has on his site just by happenstance. They are all, for the most part, nice country roads. He has some great descriptions and photographs on his site. The site navigation is a little confusing at first but not too bad.
If you live close to any of the rides he describes, they're worth a spin.
Here is a link to his ride from Cayucos to Cambria via Old Creek and Santa Rosa Creek Road.
This photo below is a shot Laura took of me during a ride (on the route linked above). Behind me is the Whale Rock Reservoir that is described in Kirby's site.

Awesome scenery, just awesome. Looking forward to reading Kirby James' stuff.
By the way what kind of jersey is that? I dig it.
Jersey is a wool short sleeve by Earth, Wind and Rider.

It's a good mid-weight jersey...good for temps around 50-70 I'd say...a bit lower if you use arm warmers, gloves and say wool sleeves...
Wool is merino and is nice and plush out of the bag...it has three pockets in the back...highly visible but classy...a little spendy but with care it will last many years...
Thanks for the info. The prices on those aren't as bad as some wool jerseys.
I've heard a lot of people say wool can be good even in very hot weather. What is your experience? Would you need a thinner type of wool for that, or are you just better off with synthetics when it's hot?
