Locust IV

[Carl Sanders]

Fourth ride in the Locust series. My first, took third. Team Summit cleaned house with 1st,2nd,3rd & 4th place positions back into the Gestalt Haus. Jim lead, followed shortly behind by Gabe, myself and Shiloh. All of us only a few minutes apart.

Early on the climb up Loma, team green, orange and black pulled away from the rest of the field. The first aid station was barely prepared for the Summit train barreling through. With the gap established, we could ease off the pace and enjoy the day as a team of four.

Rolled across Dixon Ridge, down into Devils Gulch, falling into a strong pace line along the X-Marin Trail before climbing up and onto San Geronimo Ridge. One last push over Whites Hill, Jim disappearing over the crest, gunning it down Porcupine and back into town.

Quite fun.

Great ride out into the wilds of west Marin and back.
