If you guys are talking about NorCal, why are you planning something down in the central part of the coast? ;-)
I'd suggest doing something that starts at The Bridge™, heads into Marin, and back. The SF Rando crew do all sorts of rides out that way, the loops are well defined, the breweries and coffee shops and bakeries are plenty, and there are plenty of choices for those who want to turn it into a mixed terrain ride. I'm up for organizing it if we can agree to Marin county (simply because that's the area I know best.). My initial draft would go something like this: GG Bridge or Sausalito to Pt. Reyes, and back, via the Cross-Marin trail. Along the way, there is Iron Springs Brewing, which is a few doors down from Fairfax Coffee Roasting. Both are excellent. In Pt. Reyes, there's the lovely Bovine Bakery, which is most excellent and frequented by Cyclofiend and yours truly. And, there are several choices to take nice off road sections. 70 miles round trip, if I ain't mistaken. Beautiful for certain. Bikes, coffee, beer, great food in a beautiful place. Does that work? Who's in? And, when? Cheers, Gino (in Chico) On Wed, Sep 9, 2009 at 5:36 PM, Jim M. <[email protected]> wrote: > > I'm open to all possibilities.
