Cool SF Bay Area: Evening G2G July 11th 92/35 parking lot at 3-4pm

Update: We're meeting up tomorrow July 11th at 3pm at the parking lot located on the intersection of 92 West and 35 (to get there simply take 101 or 280 North from San Jose or South from San Francisco until you get to 92 West. Take 92 West until you reach Skyline drive (CA-35). From there we'll go for a short 62 mile (about two hours including photo-op stops) drive through the hills through San Mateo county, down to Pescadaro and back. At the end we'll stop for dinner at a restaurant (nothing healthy obviously) at the intersection of 35 and I believe 85 West. It should be fun and it's not so long you'll want to blow your brains out on the drive home. Hope to see you there!

Currently I'm looking at Skyline, to Hwy 35, to Hwy 236. I'll work on a place for us to meet up. It'll probably be somewhere along 92 in the San Mateo area or at a nearby lookout point or rest stop. From Highway 236, there are a few promising looking roads which I will scout in the following few weeks. These include, China Grade, North Escape Road, Last Chance Road, etc (these names are epic). There are a number of other roads in the area I'll be checking out as well, but the goal is to converge on Santa Cruz around late afternoon for some good food on the boardwalk. Of course, we can also alter the route to bring us back to the foot of Route 92, or Half Moon Bay for a late lunch / early dinner.

As always, I'm open to any suggestions you may have.

Post if you're in!

If work, kid, wife, and house doesn't get in the way -- I'll be there. But otherwise I just can't commit to car stuff these days.....

Just had a run with the Boxster crowd couple of weeks ago. Had 1 944 there. Had a blast. We first met at Alices and had brunch. From there we headed West on 84 to hwy 1. Took more backroads there. 944 hung in there pretty good running with the likes of newer model Boxster S, RS 60 Spyder Boxsters, 911 RS America, GT3 etc...

For now I'm thinking early to mid July, a Friday possibly the 9th or 16th most likely the 9th with the 16th being the holdout should anyone need more time. That should give everyone enough time to request days off, set their schedules, fix their cars, etc.

I don't want to do a run on a weekend due to traffic / crowds / bikers / etc.

Does this work for everyone?

I'll be at the Parts Heaven Swap with a swap space - just look for all to cool water-pumper parts!

Jason - July seems good, weekday seems bad - unless we are all students and retiree's ?
