    What length of routes are you looking for? I think you're probably looking for a bit more of a challenge than the previous thread starters on SF routes. Feel free to PM me if you'd like me to email you some route sheets in the southern Marin area. You'd just need to make your way to and across the Golden gate Bridge.

    I think your change of cassette will probably be good. Weather will be anything from 60's and foggy in the city to 80's in Marin. Arm warmers, vests, etc. that allow for adaptability of clothing are good.

    If you don't like our weather either warm up or wait 5 minutes

    Thanks!
    Yeah, I will be staying in the north panhandle area, I know where to run around there- just never taken the bike before
    And if I go, I will be racing on the 7th in the giro di metromint(i so did not get the name of it correct!) so I do need to get some training rides in during the week.
