Fantastic stories of the history of this sport that all started on our local trails up on Mount Tamalpais. Be sure to ask Marc Vendetti about some of his stories of their WWII bikes on the mountain with nothing but their own two feet to bring them to a stop.

From the beaches to Tomales Bay, hiking, kayaking, nature and wildlife. Point Reyes is something to experience! Check out the lighthouse, walk out to Limintour Beach, drive all the way out to Drake's Bay (and more beach), or kayak on Tomales Bay (the right time of year will enchant you with bioluminescence in the water). Incredible views, ocean, hiking, and wilderness.
