NorCal: Ridgecrest Blvd/Mount Tam Run *Sat 9/21*
I'd like to get a nice run before all of us are up to our necks in books or the yucky weather becomes a factor for spirited runs.
When: Saturday 9/21/2002
Meeting time: 10:00 AM
Meeting place: To be announced (Somewhere in Marin City/Mill Valley)
Here's a nice write-up on the Ridgecrest/Mount Tam run: <a href="http://www.pashnit.com/roads/cal/RidgecrestRd.htm" target="_blank">http://www.pashnit.com/roads/cal/RidgecrestRd.htm</a>
We'll start rolling out @ 10:45 SHARP! Marin City can be a bit of a drive for some of you so plan ahead! Also, please bring a two way radio if you have one. It'll make the drive run much smoother.
Summery
: We'll take a short trip up 101, merge onto Highway 1, head north till Fairfax Bolinas Road. That should provide for a nice 30 minute drive until reaching Ridgecrest Blvd. From then on, it's just more twisty roads. This is my plan, but some of the other guys have voted for the traditional Gate-to Gate run. We can always decide once we meet up <img src="graemlins/bigok.gif" border="0" alt="[thumbsup]" /> .
I don't expect many cars to show up especially with a short notice like this (which is actually a good thing). I personally like small group runs and many feel the same. If you guys have any questions, ask away.
Hope to see you there!

Meeting place has been determined: Holiday Inn Express, 160 Shoreline Ave Mill Valley CA 94941
From Southbay:
NB 101 to Mill Valley/Stinson Beach exit, as you exit the freeway you are on Shoreline Highway. Look for the Holiday Inn Express sign just after you drive under the freeway overpass (well, it's really a bridge...), right turn into the parking area (it should be the first possible turn after you drive below the freeway and come through a signal intersection).
From Northbay (or Sac area if driving west on 580):
SB 101 to Mill Valley/Stinson Beach exit. Follow exit ramp and keep right. As you drive down a slight hill you approach a signal intersection with three lanes, use the middle lane (right hand lane for left turn if that makes sense) and make a left turn onto Shoreline Highway. Look for the Holiday Inn Express sign just after you make the turn, right turn into the parking area it should be the first possible turn after you come through the intersection.
Again, we'll be leaving @ 10:45 sharp so plan ahead.
