Well, my plans changed a little… 1) Hoping to bring a friend along who would be dong the maiden voyage on his new-to-him CX bike (he’s also new to riding CX bikes in general, so don’t want to make it TOO epic…) and 2) Want to be able to function later that evening for a friend’s housewarming. SO… I figured a good compromise would be to redo that “Epic Marin CX” ride we did a few years ago… we can stop for Pancakes at West Point Inn, then stop for a pint at the Pelican before we head up the Dias Ridge Trail. Oh, and also without crashing on that fucking steep Miwok descent (yah, I’ll probably unclip and walk down that section…)

Style 2 effort only… In fact, I might ride an 11-32 to enforce mellowness on the steeper climbs.
I’ll start another thread with the full deets once I’ve settled in on a roll time.
