Default Long 2 day ride recommendations from SFO day area please

Hi all,
I am new to the area, just moved in few months ago and my cousin is visiting me this weekend in San Mateo and we plan to ride all day on monday breaking the journey over night somewhere along the way and return (preferably through a different route back home on Tuesday)

Roughly 250 miles each day as we will be on my 996 and monster most likely.

One idea I have is head up north along hwy 1 as far as we can go and return through napa valley the next day. if so what are the best, must do roads? where are all the twisties?

Or do you have any other route recommendations?

Head up to Mendocino, go north across Golden Gate Bridge, 1 to Mt Tam, up & over, or various other routes out to the coast - Lucas Valley? Route 128 either going up, coming back, or both, is a must.

Check in Local Clubs/MOB/Resources, scroll down for some other ideas...

Tam Loop, With Chileno Valley Rd & Lucas Valley Rd: 108 miles
Longer Marin/Sonoma loop
Alice's Loop, with CA-9 and Pescadero Rd: 130 miles
Mines Rd, with Niles Canyon: 102 miles

Possibly south on HWY 1 along the coast, but unfortunately the fog is unpredictable and as you probably know, no fun to ride in. I would suggest the higher the elevation the better. Have fun!! [thumbsup]
