We headed out into the rainy dark. By the time we arrived in Fairfax we were soaked through and very cold. We pressed on to Nicasio where the shop owner was just opening his store. We drank coffee inside the store until we were a little warmed up. That's where we decided to abandon our attempt of the Permanent but decided to press on to Point Reyes Station where, after washing down bovinulous goodies with more hot coffee we found a secret wood burning stove. We huddled around it until we were both steaming while the feeling slowly returned to hands and feet. The rain let up so we headed out of town towards Olema. There was little rain as we rode through Samual P. Taylor State Park but we were getting cold again. We found another establishment with a wood burning stove and huddled there for a while, drying off and warming up. When we left it was raining again, as hard as ever. We stopped in Mill Valley at Super Duper for burgers and fries - the restaurant was warm! The rest of the ride was uneventful except for a flat tire I got in Sausalito.
