GPC Route: Marinwood Bolinas loop CCW
Start Location: San Rafael - Marinwood Community Center
Pre-registration
NWS forecast for Nicasio says 3/4 to 1 inch rain tonight and 70% chance light rain tomorrow. I'm sorry to have to cancel our ride.
This week we will ride a big loop starting at Miller Creek and going through Pt. Reyes Station (snack), Bear Valley, Olema, and Bolinas, where we stop for lunch. Then it is up the long, quiet climb of BoFax Road, down to Alpine Dam, and into Fairfax. Finish with the short steep climb over Fawn Drive. A bit shorter than our usual rides, but with enough hilliness to make up for it.
There is sometimes a faster (more like M pace) group on this ride, but we all come back together at frequent regroups and lunch. Arrive by the meeting time if you don't want to chase.

Tonight's ride is canceled due to likely rain.
Please join us for a weekly Thursday evening ride. This is a short ride but with a steep climb! We’ll head up Virginia St and Spruce to Spruce/Grizzly Peak for our first regroup, then head out along Wildcat Canyon to South Park Rd. From there, we’ll climb South Park, descend, and climb it again as many times as the mood strikes us (usually two or three times is enough, but individual riders can shorten or lengthen the ride as desired). South Park is closed to cars starting November 1st, which makes it perfect for winter riding. If we complete two round trip ascents up South Park then back to N Berkeley Bart, expect about 2,300 feet of elevation gain. This is a great way to stay in shape over the winter!
NOTE: This is a night ride. Come with bright front and rear lights (and make sure they work). 20% chance or greater of rain cancels the ride. Please contact ride leaders with any questions.

Birding and biking is back! Join Kate and me on this ride along the Hayward Shoreline as we check out a variety of birds. According to recent eBird checklists like this one, we have a good chance of seeing long-billed dowitchers and tree swallows among many other species. Pack your bins and let's meet at the San Leandro Marina Park parking lot at the end of Monarch Bay Drive (see map). If you choose to come by BART, the closest station is San Leandro. I am happy to lead you from there to the start at a strong T pace. A Richmond-Berryessa train arrives at 9:05 and a Daly City-Berryessa train arrives at 9:16. We should be able to reach the start by 9:45, our meeting time. But please check the BART app for any updates and for train arrival times if you are coming from the South Bay. We roll at 10.

From there, we’ll climb South Park, descend, and climb it again as many times as the mood strikes us (usually two or three times is enough, but individual riders can shorten or lengthen the ride as desired). South Park is closed to cars starting November 1st, which makes it perfect for winter riding. If we complete two round trip ascents up South Park then back to N Berkeley Bart, expect about 2,300 feet of elevation gain. This is a great way to stay in shape over the winter!
NOTE: This is a night ride. Come with bright front and rear lights (and make sure they work). 20% chance or greater of rain cancels the ride. Please contact ride leaders with any questions.

Start Location:
San Rafael - Marinwood Community Center
Pre-registration
NWS forecast for Nicasio says 3/4 to 1 inch rain tonight and 70% chance light rain tomorrow. I'm sorry to have to cancel our ride.
This week we will ride a big loop starting at Miller Creek and going through Pt. Reyes Station (snack), Bear Valley, Olema, and Bolinas, where we stop for lunch. Then it is up the long, quiet climb of BoFax Road, down to Alpine Dam, and into Fairfax. Finish with the short steep climb over Fawn Drive. A bit shorter than our usual rides, but with enough hilliness to make up for it.
There is sometimes a faster (more like M pace) group on this ride, but we all come back together at frequent regroups and lunch. Arrive by the meeting time if you don't want to chase.

Birding and biking is back! Join Kate and me on this ride along the Hayward Shoreline as we check out a variety of birds. According to recent eBird checklists like this one, we have a good chance of seeing long-billed dowitchers and tree swallows among many other species. Pack your bins and let's meet at the San Leandro Marina Park parking lot at the end of Monarch Bay Drive (see map). If you choose to come by BART, the closest station is San Leandro. I am happy to lead you from there to the start at a strong T pace. A Richmond-Berryessa train arrives at 9:05 and a Daly City-Berryessa train arrives at 9:16. We should be able to reach the start by 9:45, our meeting time. But please check the BART app for any updates and for train arrival times if you are coming from the South Bay. We roll at 10.
