WSS December: Almost Paradise, M&G Burgers**Cash Only** 30 mi (Helen)

About this event






Almost paradise ride (30miles/+1,800') and then lunch at M&G Burgers in Larkspur (cash only)...an unbeatable combo.  Spend half a day with us to catch up on some quality girl time.  We start at Piper Park in Larkspur.  We'll ride counterclockwise Paradise Loop with a side trip to the ruins on Belvedere Island, a brief detour to the Mar West hill atop Paradise Drive and conclude with a pleasant spin on the Corte Madera Creek bike path. 

Our lunch spot this time is M&G Burgers in Larkspur, a restaurant opened in 1962 by sisters Ida Magnus and Lena Gotelli.  All they wanted to do was make fresh sandwiches, fries and shakes with the best ingredients and "serve it fast but not like fast food."  The restaurants, both the Larkspur and Fairfax locations were purchased 10 years ago by Mark Escabar, a local who wanted to keep everything the same...all the way down to the cash only policy.  So don't forget to bring cash.  Price range $13-20 per person.

After lunch it's a short 1 mile ride back to Piper Park.  So how about it?  Come with us!
