Hey N. Californians, check this out -- some familiar territory! 
Steven Cozza, a 24-year-old Garmin-Slipstream professional, invited Cyclingnews to his hometown of Petaluma, California where he shared the details of his favourite training ride.
The Marshall Wall/Mt. Tam loop encompasses approximately 140 kilometres of stunning Northern California scenery. Originating in Petaluma, the counter-clockwise circuit heads to the Pacific coast and California's famed Highway 1, ascends through a Redwood forest to the Mount Tamalpais ridge line, sinuously descends to Alpine Lake and then concludes with rolling, rural roads back to Cozza's hometown.
