Welcome!

Welcome to the Fall Follies!   This training ride series is meant to help you get on that bike through the Fall months. The rides are geared towards all riders whether you are experienced or brand new.  The Fall Follies rides will be slower paced than our progressive Spring series.  As a warm and welcoming group of cyclists, the Marauders hope you come join us each Sunday!

The Route

This ride is another flagship of the Marauder routes.  It has everything from good climbs to good descents to good food! The total route is 48 miles with 2,557 feet of climbing.  Leaving Hall Brown we will head through Fairfax and up and over White Hill followed by Nicasio Hill.  After a brief rest in Rancho Nicasio, we will head up Cheese Factory (Kenny's Climb) to the Marin Cheese Factory. After letting our legs recover, we then head down (mostly) into Novato for some lunch at Tags Deli before heading back to Hal Brown.
