Usual route out to Pt. Reyes (lunch), then back down 1 to Bolinas/Fairfax climb to Tam.

Haven't made it all the way to the top ... possibilities? Maybe even do the Headlands?

I should be able to make this. I don't know if there is enough daylight to get out to Point Reyes then get back to still do Tam from the Alpine lake side.

Marin Headlands upper section of Conzelman road is very nice now that everything is repaved. Same with the Mccullough for the climb back up.

I think I value sleeping in and riding locally too much to make this, but it sounds fun. hrm.

We should make it fine to the summit before we lose daylight. Just no "lallygagging". No stops till Nicasio. Quick Sangwich at Pt. Reyes. Should easily be back by 4:30

Was looking forward to meeting BFers, but the inner part of a valve stem came out when I removed the Lezyne's chuck. Then the replacement did the same thing. (Batch batch; have been using the same tubes on my daily rider with no problems.) Didn't even get to the bridge plaza until c.10:15 - there was some espresso time in there;-) Ended up doing a Fairfax, Seven Sisters, and back loop. Great ride and all I had legs for, anyway.

We were running late at the start...probably just missed you. Maybe next time.
