GG Bridge to Nicasio and Back

Absolutely no rain on ride out, a little chilly but dry. 8 of us rode first to Fat Angel Bakery in Fairfax and then up and over White's Hill and over to Nicasio. Anuj was on his first "official" training ride for ALC so we treated him like royalty. Rancho Nicasio has a great menu, and on a quiet Friday morning they can actually get your meal made pretty quickly! Lyra had a great chicken caesar salad, Gary and Diane shared a sandwich and Anuj had the "Buckaroo" plate. We told him that was his nickname from now on- Buckaroo.

It rained a bit on the road back, but basically a passing shower. A little wet on White's Hill back into Fairfax, so I rode the shoulder the whole way. It can be done, you just have to start out slowly (like 20mph) and hold it there. No problems, it was a great 50 mile ride!
