Tam Bikes is one of those rare shops that turns a purchase into a long-term relationship. We bought…read moretwo EMTBs from them, and somewhere along the way it stopped feeling like we were just customers and started feeling like we had a go-to crew for anything bike related. That kind of loyalty is earned, and they earned it fast. From the beginning, the level of service stood out. They took the time to really walk us through options, made sure the bikes actually fit how and where we ride, and never once made it feel rushed or transactional. Even after the purchase, they have been just as dialed in. Questions, adjustments, tune-ups, it is all handled with the same level of care and attention. Honestly, they have set the standard for what a bike shop should feel like. The bikes are incredible, but it is the people that make the difference. We ride more because of them, we trust their recommendations, and we know we are taken care of every time we walk in. Customers for life is not something we say lightly, but here it just fits.

Average bike shop. My only disappointment is how the service department interacted with me. I tried…read moreto explain what the problem was and the service guy basically made me feel stupid for doing so. He was more interested in making it clear that I didn't know what I was talking about. I actually did have a pretty good idea of the problem, and after he did a quick diagnoses, came to the same conclusion. He just seemed to want to make it clear that he knew more about my bike than I did. And when I asked how long it would take, it seemed like it was an imposition to do so because they are "so" busy. They fixed it in good order but they could use a lesson in customer interaction.

I've been struggling along trying to get better by myself on my mountain bike for the past year. I…read morefinally decided to get a little professional help. I did a 1 on 1 lesson with Celia on some tough single track last weekend that was beyond my expectations. She not only helped me with my technique (and some mental blocks), but helped me dial in some of my bike fit and basic handling I'd been doing wrong. She's a great coach for anyone, but it was a real treat to have a woman coach me. I look forward to her Hot Mama clinic this year. She also does hike & bike tours for locals and tourists alike. Visiting SF and want to get right into the heart of Marin's best trails? Give her a call.

Next door is the specialty wine business. I was warmly greeted by the friendly staffer, who explained some of the bikes they had for sale. It's a little spartan inside, so don't expect a lavish interior. Nevertheless they have a good assortment of inexpensive ebikes for sale. Almost all of them are the motor in the hub design. And most are $2,000 or less. Thanks for opening this specialty business in the heart of dublin. I think it will be a real asset to our community.

Keep going for a short distance past a huge boulder on your right and the houses start to Peter out. There is a house on the left where the trail starts. Find parking and walk up the gravel trail past the house. The trail makes a sharp right turn where the Cypress Trail continues straight. The trail is quite rutty and full of rocks, not very steep. It continues past a huge house onto a road. Turn around and note where the trail is so you can find it to return. The trail gets pretty busy in early aft on a weekend, sometimes. I suggest you go to top to join the Sun Trail to the Dipsea and head back to Mill Valley!

I found that the trails and roads were in pretty good shape, but keep in mind that some of them are pretty steep. Also note on the map which ones are good for bikes and which ones are not suitable for bikes. On My Le summer bike ride through this preserve, I happen to encounter a volunteer. This nice gentleman goes through the parks and make sure that everything is safe and in good shape. I suggested that they have maps at the entrance, rather than just a board

It's not cliche to add "but I really enjoy remaining alive". So first things first: * Keep yourself and your dog - and anything else you cherish - close and hug the mountain. If you're heading up, stay far to the right and as close to the mountain as possible. If you're headed down, continue to stay there, even if it feels like you're walking in the wrong "lane". * Pray that the mountain bikers racing down the mountain stay in the outside "lane", have excellent brakes, vigilance, and a conscience. I wish there were signs that explained these rules but there aren't. Don't learn the hard way. There's a lot of options here. After street parking on West Blithedale, I hiked about 45 minutes up to a great viewpoint with a bench. At this point, there's an auto barrier which allows walk-ins and bike-ins. I went no further but was told that continuing on leads to a paved road then another fire road leading to many additional trails. (To get to this place, I took the path on the left when there was an option. Path on the left but keep hugging the mountain). To this point, the hike isn't difficult. The incline is gradual but the wide path is rocky so wear sturdy shoes. Others have reported this trail as sunny and hot but I experienced normal Mill Valley weather (cool and overcast). My dog and I generally enjoy a hike that doesn't entail fearing for our lives. By that measure, this isn't really a great place. I did like the ease of access and the long, gentle slope of the trail (at least the part I hiked) and for that I'd make a return visit. There's probably a law against even thinking this in Marin, but this would be a 4-star hike for me if we could ban the mountain bikers. Until then, no.
