At Third Wheel Tours, guests embark on an exhilarating adventure via tandem sidecars through vineyards and the backroads of wine country. The idea was inspired by Jaydy Gonzalez’s early childhood in the Philippines, where motorcycles are a chief form of transportation.

No trip to San Luis Obispo is complete without a visit to nearby wine country. The recently designated SLO Coast American Viticultural Area (AVA) was established in 2022 and covers the area from the Santa Barbara County line to the south and the Monterey County line to the north. The 78 vineyards here are defined by their proximity to the Pacific and the cool weather that it brings. The wineries are relaxed and approachable — many have no minimum spend on tastings, don’t require reservations, and are just a short drive from downtown.
