About this event




Fun, Fat and Fifty, 2 of the 3 are true.  You'll have to come to find out which! Let's celebrate Juan's birthday by riding one of his favorite routes, east to west from Marinwood and back again with a post ride toast to the celebrant at Big Rock Deli!  You've done this route so many times.  Go out on Lucas Valley Side, Big Rock, Pt. Reyes Station and come back via Samuel P. Taylor, Sir Francis Drake, downtown San Rafael and a final bonus counter clockwise China Camp lap and back we go to Marinwood.  Ride an extra mile out to Big Rock Deli for the birthday toast.  Start from your home to add miles.  Feel free to ride your speed but for this special occasion we'd love it if you can hang out with the group.
