Yes. Traditionally, they are.  The specific geography of the region,
combined with the SF Randonneurs club wanting to begin/end at the
"traditional" location of the GG Bridge, as well as a logical turn around
spot that wasn't just a mile marker led them to ride to Pt. Reyes Station.
IIRC, there was some discussion about that decision on the SFR List.

I don't recall if they had to request a variance, or if there is a hard and
fast rule of 100K.
