Marin Ride - Saturday October 7th - 8:45 am meetup, 9 am roll time

What: This week we'll be riding a Point Reyes Station loop by heading out over the RSR Bridge heading north through San Rafael to Lucas Valley Rd, west to Nicasio Valley Rd and Pt Reyes-Petaluma Rd to Point Reyes Station, then back through Olema to Sir Francis Drake through San Rafael to cross back over the RSR Bridge. Coffee stop will be in PRS at Brickmaiden (or Toby's for those that prefer cold brew)! From Point Richmond, the route is ~65 miles with ~3300 ft of climbing. We'll regroup at the top/bottom of the climbs (top-ish of Big Rock/Lucas Valley climb, bottom of climb out of Olema at Platform Bridge, and bottom of White's Hill in Fairfax). Ride pace for A group will be 17-19 mph average with faster bursts on some sections and for B group will be 15-17 mph average, and C group will be 13-15 mph and you should be comfortable with group riding and have read and be familiar the BBC Group Ride Guidelines. Ride leaders will be Morgan Griffin (A) and KC (B) and TBD (C) this week.

Where/When: Meeting this Saturday at 8:45 am outside Maya Taqueria at Pt Richmond (plenty of parking available if you're driving). We'll roll from Point Richmond at 9 a.m. sharp. C group will depart 5 minutes after A and B groups and will have its own regroups along the route.
