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. -Jim G -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
