It’s time for our FINAL adventure run of the season. And, we’re going BIG for this one.

We have a ‘short’ route which is a 5ish mile out/back route. For those going long, you’re heading all the way to Sausalito (nearly 11 miles) & returning the via Sausalito Ferry!

FYI, there are ferries departing Sausalito for the Ferry Building on the Embarcadero on Saturday at 11:30, 1:25, 3:10, 5:00, & 6:55PM.

Whether you’re running short or long, we’re getting things started at Devil’s Teeth Baking Company (corner of Sacramento/Front St). There are parking lots at the Embarcadero and paid street parking near Devil’s Teeth if you’re driving.
