The Hitching Post 2 will be our destination / termination point for this ride.
After the pre-ride briefing we will leave the SMH-D north side parking lot onto Preisker Lane and turn right and head to the traffic light at N Broadway / Highway 135. I will wait until we are all together and the light turns green. We will turn right and get on the southbound Highway 101 entrance ramp. We will travel to the Clark Avenue exit in Orcutt and turn left. We will head east to Dominion Road and turn right at the ‘T’ intersection. We will bear left and the road turns into Palmer Road. Following Palmer Road this will take us to Foxen Canyon Road in Sisquoc and we will turn right. We will stay on Foxen Canyon Road and then continue south on Zaca Station Road which will take us to Highway 154. We will turn right and travel over Highway 101 and get on the southbound on ramp and head towards Buellton. We will take the Avenue of the Flags exit and then make an immediate left on Damassa Road, travel over Highway 101 and then turn right at McMurray Road. This will take us to Highway 246 where we will make a left hand turn and travel through two traffic lights and out destination will be just past Rio Vista Chevrolet on the right hand side. We will find parking, stow our gear and then place our orders at the Hitching Post 2 Tasting Room outside counter behind the Hitching Post 2 Tasting Room. (44.9 miles, 1 hour 5 minutes)
Cutoff for this ride will be on Friday, November 21st, NOON so I can let the staff know at the Hitching Post 2 Tasting Room so they can set up a seating area for us. The food is great at this place since they prepare it in the main restaurant and then hot box it over to the Hitching Post Wines area.
