Seems like most years I get an opportunity to do Octoberfest in Marin County's Fairfax. This year the group I went with was Sheldon, Katie, Lloyd, and Townie Bill.  We met up on the train and then rode to the Ferry Building at the end of Market St. to see if anyone else wanted to join the ride there.

  

Townie was the organizer. He said we'd be there at 10 AM and we were very close to on time. Didn't have any more join us though. Didn't matter, it was all about having a nice ride through interesting countryside.

We stopped a few times to take pictures. Those skys talked a good game, but I only remember feeling about four raindrops. It wasn't enough percipitation to do anything more than scare off the weather wooses.

The event we rode to was all about trying interesting beers and acting friendly in a plaza that was just a little too small to really keep your distance from other people. Seems like every good brewer in Northern California was pouring liberal samples. For some reason I focussed more on enjoying the moment than taking pictures. Had a great afternoon and don't remember much more than that.

It was pretty late by the time we got back to the Golden Gate Bridge.

Fifty miles of pedaling, half of it after enjoying lots of beer in the hot sun. That's after doing SJBP on Friday, which was a long night. We were lagging on the train south.
