There's a major water line break at Via Del Ray and El Caminito Del Norte in #Monterey. It's affecting water pressure and service from Seaside to Pebble Beach. It nearly flooded a house by the high school there was so much water dumping into the creek. Cal Am is shutting off pumps across the peninsula to try and get it to stop. The leak undermined the road. It's still flowing but not as much as when it broke around 240pm.
So I guess we won't have water until tomorrow. Neat.

Big Sur Kate's recent post on the Timber and Plaskett fires, w/report from Keith Vandervere. Looks like the Plaskett has gone down to Hwy 1, and has also crossed onto Fort Hunter Liggett: https://bigsurkate.blog/
#Monterey #wildfires -
#Monterey Peninsula just got a #redflagwarning. We lived through the brown skies of the Soberanes fire, and didn't get a red flag warning even then. And the Timber fire (granted it's about 23k acres now, and a new fire to the south (Plaskett fire) is some 40 mi. away. Now we're supposed to keep our go-bags handy because 20% possibility of lightning strikes as well. Yikes.

We did a favorite road bike ride yesterday.
The map shows the 26 mile round trip road bike route from Fisherman’s Wharf in Monterey CA to Pebble Beach and back. Most of the ride is along the coast. As usual, it was overcast with a light wind. One gets used to overcast and wind when riding pretty much anywhere within Santa Cruz and Monterey along the bay.
Fisherman’s Wharf is a good place to start since there is usually plenty of parking and the parking rate is reasonable.
The Lone Cypress is a mile or two up 17 Mile Drive between the bottom 180 turn on the map and the Pebble Beach resort, our turn-around point.

"'In an ideal world, we would have bike lanes with a physical barrier everywhere. That’s what’s needed. The reason more people don’t bike is primarily the fear of cars, and you can’t blame them.'”
—Bicycling Monterey’s founder, in cover story, "Can advocates make local streets safer for pedestrians, cyclists and drivers?"

Exhilarating captain's log entry from Monterey Bay where the captain and passengers of Sanctuary Cruises captures incredible video of a pod of Bigg's killer whales hunting 15 dolphins. High wire acrobatics etc.
"Seeing a predation event of this scale is a stark reminder of the raw, trophic dynamics of Monterey Bay. While these encounters can be difficult to watch, they represent the natural ecological balance of a healthy, functioning marine sanctuary."

As #Monterey #CarWeek is coming up, the residents of Seaside CA (a city in the Monterey metro area) is asking their police department to hassle loud cars out of their city. They really, really hate the amount of cars that descend into what is otherwise a quiet coastal town every year.
My fellow car enthusiast friend put it this way: Imagine there’s a week-long tuba festival that comes into your town every year. During that week, thousands of people play the tuba on the streets all day, and late into the night. Would you like that?
Can’t really argue with that argument.

"Bay Area construction company illegally polluted river, lawsuit alleges.” Rpt by Paul Rogers, #MontereyHerald.
Graniterock, "based in Watsonville, has more than 20 offices and locations, incl in San Jose, Concord, Redwood City, South San Francisco, Santa Cruz and Salinas….Lawsuit...stated that the company has been fined four times since 2018 by state #WaterPollution regulators at #CentralCoast Regional Water Quality Control Board. In those cases, settlements required #Graniterock to pay a total of $138K in penalties for water quality violations at the quarry.
"For each of the 46 incidents involved, the board imposed the minimum penalty of $3K, the lawsuit noted, calling it 'tantamount to a #PayToPollute system' for a company with millions of $ in annual revenue.

Friday is farmers market day at Del Monte Center, Monterey. Don’t know who rode this bike to DMC today, just appreciate that they did. Related tips in “Bike to Farmers Markets” https://bikemonterey.org/tips-for-tourists/food-for-all and in “Shopping by Bike”: https://bikemonterey.org/tips-for-tourists/unique-attractions
DMC is in city of Monterey. The city’s bike-aware leaders, e.g., Mayor Tyller Williamson and Council Member Gino Garcia (whose day job is working for Ecology Action of Santa Cruz / Lets Modo) may be unaware that we formerly had in that Shopping section of the Tips guide a detailed map listing all Del Monte Center bike rack locations. Their ED at that time himself biked to work! Why is that detailed map no longer in our guide? Because DMC 🔥REMOVED those bike racks! 😭#NotProgress #GoingBackward #CarbonEmissions #TrafficCongestion #Monterey #ActOnClimate #ClimateCrisis #transportation
