Nope. This is on the south side of Tam. Around Cardiac Hill, Coastal.

Sure. Basically it is east peak on Tam. Right now sunrise is at 7:00a, We leave downtown Mill Valley about an 1:10 hr:mm before sunrise to ride up railroad grade to the top of Tam (east peak) which is a casual / brisk pace.

At east peak head toward the bathrooms and towards your right is a paved trail the zigzags go down it and follow topic you get to the observation deck.

I typically ride 40mm 700c tires, but having heard so much about traction issues last year, I'm scouting the course this weekend with the "heavies" on there...then doing three of the six climbs on Six Gap (Three Gap), riding Compass Barlow Pass 700c tires. Should be an interesting weekend. At least I'll have a granny gear capable of climbing a tree!
Looks great. Thanks for sharing a 650b'd Lauf TG. This is only the second example of that combo I've heard of, but I am tempted to mess around a bit with 650bx48ish on my Lauf as well.
How much clearance do you have in the rear with the Sendero?

Nearly 1cm on the chainstays...maybe 8mm? Lots otherwise. LOTS.
