Joe, I've not done the SFR 600km but I have several friends who have done it, and across several years too. From my memory of their stories, anyone that slept...
Joe, I did the SF 600k and did book a room at Fort Bragg. However, upon arrival, others doing the ride strongly suggested that we form a group and ride back...
You are right. You will be on long stretches of road with nothing opened. The pre-ride information will suggest Fort Bragg as the place to get a room. It is...

Zach, didn't you take a small bivey sack with you? Or was this the time you used the door mat for warmth? On the SR 600 two years ago I tried to sleep at Pope...
... Maybe Zach just leaned his bike against the wall and slept in his portable lounge chair. :) ... Is the route available anywhere? I'm getting a late start...

Looks like places like Jenner and Healdsburg have a 30-40 POP forcast for Saturday, with Sunday being at 20 POP. Guess I'll be riding my slow bike again cuz...
Hi Rob, me too, going with full fenders and a big pack with lots of dry clothes, esp. socks and gloves. Maybe I'll get to test out my so- called waterproof...

I'm not expecting all day rain. Expecting to add 2 hours might be overestimating the effect of the rain. That said, I plan on being slowed by the huge burrito...
