Marin is much better than SF - I happily rode around Marin on Corsas.

Edit: Some of the Marin backroads like Bolinas-Fairfax Road are quite rough and are best on 28s or 30s, in my opinion, but I'm also not nearly as small and lightweight as some folks and I know this is weight and tire pressure dependent. YMMV.
