To avoid the bad pavement and non-bike-friendly traffic of Sir Francis
Drake, one can also take the heavenly Cross-Marin Trail through SP
Taylor park.  Pick it up as you're headed north at Inkwells Bridge
[http://www.flickr.com/photos/cyclofiend/1245477645/] where you'll
begin on a dirt/gravel section; it'll spill you out into the campsite
proper after you cross a another footbridge .  If you stay on it
through the camping areas it continues as a paved multi-use path, then
rejoins SFD just before the climb up the Olema ridge.
