California is much more than surfing and sunshine. The Golden State features dozens of biking trails and adventures in Big Sur, and other parts of the state too.<\/p>\n
The rugged terrain will keep you on your toes as you wind around paths next to the ocean, atop of cliffs where waves crash just below you! Sounds like a cycling lover\u2019s dream.<\/p>\n
Ride the paths and make your way to the beautiful Hearst Castle, dating back to the 1800s, located in San Simeon, California.

A post shared by Excursions Faroe Islands (@excursionsfaroeislands)<\/a> on 
Cycling in and around the Faroe Islands is so popular because all of the islands are accessible either by sub-sea tunnels, bridges, or ferries.<\/p>\n
While bike paths are uncommon in the Faroe Islands, the destination is popular for cycling also because of low volume traffic on most roads.<\/p>\n
According to the Faroe Islands tourism website<\/a>, \u201cYour bike must have a bell, a white reflector visible from the front, yellow reflectors on the pedals and wheels and a red reflector at the back.\u201d This is in the event that you must go through a tunnel, which can be very dark.<\/p>\n
