Spent a wonderful kid-free weekend up in Marin with Kimbo for our 10th anniversary!
We cruised up Fri afternoon, had lunch at Marin Sun Farms, got baked goods at Bovine Bakery, and Double 8 Buffalo milk ice cream. Then we put in at Nick's Cove and spent a night on our own beach. Tomales Bay was quite windy and getting across on the SUP was quite difficult.
Sat, we packed up and had a pleasant paddle across the glassy water back to the car. We loaded up, checked in to Mayacamas for lunch and went on a bike
getting ready to get on the boats. |
The conditions... |
We ended up at Pelican North Beach. |
Woohoo we made it! |
gathering firewood. |
All set up! |
Nothing to do but watch the tide roll out... |
And play with the night shot mode on my gopro |
Nice Sunrise! |
Cool halo around Hog Island |
Lots of seals wished us "happy anniversary" on our way back. |
Loading GoodGirl back up. The car didn't start, but one of the Blue Waters employees helped us out by banging the starter... and she started right up! |
Brunch at the bakeries. Talked a few bike tourists here who were headed down to Mexico. |
And lunch at Mayacamas! |
Then we hopped on the tandem and cruised to Vincent Arroyo |
Kimbo taking a shot of my selfie shot... we rode by some other randonneurs who were in the middle of their Fleche! |
Picked up a few nice bottles here. We need to become members again... |
And after a steep climb, we made it back up to Mayacamas! |
With this waiting... it's hard not to pedal fast... |
Sunset drinks at the pool |
The next morning I decided to go on a quick run and drove down to Oat Hill Mine Rd... which I've heard a lot of good things about from Mtn Bikers. |
It used to be an old road used by wagon trains... and there are plenty of fun single track options at the bottom. Looked really fun. I wanna go back with my bike soon. |
On our way back, we stopped at Russian River Brew Co for lunch... and some Plinys... |
And more Plinys... |
