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 in our series takes us over familiar territory out to Fairfax, and over Whites Hill to Lagunitas, our first stop of the day. Continuing west, we take the Samuel P Taylor bike path, then tackle the Olema Hill (the easy way) and after a picturesque detour arrive at Point Reyes, where we will enjoy a rest stop at the Bovine Bakery or Cowgirl Creamery (your choice!). Leaving Point Reyes, we head around the top side of the Nicasio Reservoir, and head up, up, up, to the Marin Cheese Factory. A right at Novato Boulevard takes us on a glorious nine-mile (mostly) downhill, to a third rest stop at Starbucks or Panera’s. Heading south, we’ll return via three sections of bike path, back to Hal Brown
