The main thing with that route is the farm traffic pretty much any day but Sunday, and those roads aren't well maintained ( alot of very bumpy patch work) and lack of shoulders...although it would only be that way for a few miles. If your coming from Pismo if you went hwy 1 to Clark Ave. and head east on Clark you can take Dominon Rd which wraps around by Sisquoc and you can pick up Foxen Canyon Road out there. That would be a good choice. You could also take a route along Betteravia Rd. but that wouldn't be my first choice because of traffic and lack of bicycle lanes.
