Marin Camp 2011 Day 4Today we took the decision to ride what we normally do on the final day - the Marshall Loop - in the hope of avoiding the cold soaking forecast for Saturday. We mostly managed that, and ended up having a great day out. More than 6 hours after leaving the retreat, the last riders filed in to a meal of chicken pad thai and rice. Here are some photos:

Marin Camp 2011 Day 2Day 2! We lucked out with the weather on Sprint Day and actually got some nice work done in the Marin Headlands before heading around Paradise Loop for some bonus mileage. Here are some photos from the day:

Golden Gate bridge Marin Camp 2011 Day 1It snuck up on me, but Marin Camp started with the biggest group ever! After breakfast, we distributed some goodies from Camp supporters before Jeb gave a fantastic presentation on mental skills training and goal setting. A total of 16 riders left to ride today, including two coaches, two representatives from Strava and one nice fellow from Quarq Technology who will spend the week riding with us. We had a nice spin out Panoramic where we did 5 minute power tests. Afterwards, we climbed up to Rock Spring before descending Ridgecrest down the spine of Mt. Tamalpais to Fairfax-Bolinas Rd. The latter was covered with debris and rock slides from the area's recent storms and we found the gate at the bottom had been closed. Stephan had to drive the van all the way back around to Stinson Beach while we all hopped the barrier and continued. We did our 1-minute power tests on the flat leading to town then kept a nice tempo all the way back to the Retreat. Once we were home we were treated to a fantastic lunch before massages and a yoga class. Here are some photos:
