Welcome!
Welcome to the Marin Marauder's Progressive Sunday Rides Training Series. The Spring Fling Progressive rides are designed to get you ready for whatever ride you have scheduled. We start off with smaller rides and build each week until you are riding over 100 miles a day and climbing like a pro. If you take part in this series you will most certainly be ready for just about any ride! Not only are the rides epic, but the scenery and the people are too. We are a warm and welcoming inclusive group of cyclist of all ages and shapes.

The Route
This ride is one of the Marauder flag ship rides. To say its one of the most beautiful routes in Marin is not giving it proper credit. We will head out through Fairfax and climb White Hill and Nicasio Hill with a brief rest in Nicasio. From there we will head over to Pt. Reyes station for their famous Buffalo Ice Cream and other yummy treats. After a rest we will climb Olema Hill before riding through Samuel P. Taylor Park. Let yourself cruise the park in all its beauty and just feel the serenity of it all. In the park are also two Marauder landmarks. One is the Magic Tree where its almost required to get your picture! The other is Rachels Restroom, a clean pitstop named after a long time Marauder. We will then head back to Hal Brown park.
