Perhaps the most beautiful rides we do in the series. This week we head north to San Anselmo where we take a right, left and right again (don’t worry, we’ll post Ride Leaders on these turns!) on a few back roads to San Rafael. The stretch through San Rafael around the 101 can be a little heavy in traffic, but its normally not too bad as we get there early on a Sunday and only lasts half a mile or so.
After this we get on to San Pedro which takes us round through China Camp. China Camp is fantastic. Think Paradise loop except longer and less hills. We’ll also stop at Rat Rock Cove for lunch. After China Camp there is a little tricky section coming back through San Rafael to rejoin the way we came in - we normally have Ride Leaders here to make sure no one gets lost.
Once back to San Anselmo the route is the familiar path back over Camino Alto to the city.
