Road cycling
From Fairfax to Ridgecrest Boulevard is the consumate component of a road bike ride through Marin to Mount Tamalpais or Stinson Beach.
Narrow without shoulders but usually little traffic and those that drive are used to respect the many bikes that share the road.
Bring water, as the next fill up after Fairfax is either at Mount Tam or Stinson.
From here West Ridgecrest Road continues to climb toward the Rockspring intersection which either goes left to the summit of Mount Tam or right to Pantoll and the Panoramic highway.

Great climb and very light traffic. It starts out steep but then is more gradual to the top!
