San Francisco to St. Helena- Wedding and Wine!

Click map to view route

I'm going to the Princesa's wedding next weekend and just found what looks like a swell route from sausalito to st. helena, courtesy of a bikely.com user. i'll be riding and camping and weddinging with Al Farid all weekend long. Any tips for the route before I go?

Update: Ride never happened due to sleepy man. Zipcar'd to Napa instead. Boo for no ride, although it probably wouldn't have been the best idea to cycle with the (Fake) Labor Day car crowd sharing the road.

Kevin Cyr!

Touring Thoughts

Touring is the next big thing. It seems like everyday I am hearing or reading or thinking or talking about bike touring. Other people are thinking so too. Here is a group of fine San Francisco cyclists I met at Sam P. Taylor state park. They too were on an overnight, cook out type of ride from the city.
Among the group were two fellow SF bike journalists, authors of SF Wiggle and Post Car Adventuring. Both blogs are great and the latter is specifically about touring. It's easy to understand the touring appeal, since you can load a bike with everything you need to comfortably travel the world. And in our back yard, sights like this:
See you on the road!
