Helpfulness
In America, the thought of adequate public transportation gets thwarted frequently. Public attractions sometimes become inundated with private vehicles, however if there is no other alternative, it happens.
If you are heading to Pebble Beach, you will not have too much choice in the matter. It is not located close enough to a major airport to make a bus or taxi feasible, however most rental car agencies are available for $25-60USD per day plus applicable taxes.
On this trip, we chose National Rental Car, and since we had 6 adults went with the minivan.

If you are looking at flying into Pebble Beach, you have a couple options. 3 major airports, and one regional jet location are all easily accessible.
Major International - SFO San Francisco (111 miles away)
Minor International - OAK Oakland (110 miles away)
Minor International - SJC San Jose (80 miles away)
Regional Airport - MRY Monterey (8 miles away)
Have a safe flight!

The 17 mile drive has some pretty steep grades and blind turns, but my wife and I were able to pedal it on our tandem several years back. The pavement is excellent, and the traffic is unusually tolerant of bicycles. I believe that cyclists get past the gate for free. Good cyclists will have no trouble pedalling between Monterrey and Carmel in a morning, even with frequent stops for views of the coastline. Watch out for stray golf balls and speed demon sports cars. There are actually several roads, some which go along the ridge. Expect to get lost, but all roads eventually lead to a gate.

Golfer's Paradise or Lonely Cypress?
Should I spend my time talking about this place being the golf mecca of the world, or should I in turn spend more time on the 17 mile drive? Its VT.... I'll do both.
