tomales bay cheese factory loop
Today I paid another visit to the marin cheese factory but instead of starting the ride from SF (and putting up with scary cars most of the way) I started my ride in Novato and spent most of it on nice peaceful country roads. much better. I stopped by the Tomales Bay Oyster Company on hw1 and ate a dozen oysters (yum!) and sampled 7 different kinds of cheese at the cheese factory. (something to remember for next time - you have to bring your own shucking knife to the oyster company since they won’t let you borrow one…which makes it kinda hard to eat the oysters…luckily a nice family let me borrow a screwdriver which also worked).
The ride is 46 miles with about 1800 feet of elevation gain, most of it happening along 2 hills - a pretty steep one at mile 16 and one that begins right after you pass the nicasio reservoir.
