Well, the bad news is that I am out of town the last 2 weeks of March. The GOOD news is that I will be touring the new Porsche Museum on Sun, Mar. 22, and have a factory tour set up for Mon, Mar 23. Thanks for putting this together Mike and Darren, next time for sure. Zuffenhausen or bust!!

Paul, I wish I could be in Stuttgart too ..... the new museum looks absolutely amazing (the old one is definitely way too small). Take plenty of pictures and share your stories with us when you return!

Darin Knows what I'm talking about.

I'm in and looking forward to it.

Got routes if you're interested, let me know.

The last drive I went on with Eric, up in his neck of the woods, was awesome. We went on some really great roads. He knows of what he speaks....

well, the last drive Terry was there with his water cooled 997tt... so I'd say you are in good company any way you slice it.

jmarch, I know it is tough to choose between going riding and a drive, believe me I have a garage full of bikes, but it will be fun. Maybe we can hook up and go riding some time. The following weekend is the big vintage weekend out at Sandhill Ranch, Brad Lackey Norcal Classic, which we will be racing at you should come out Saturday and check it out lots of fun.

Eric S.

To answer your suggestion that was my plan. North through Pope Valley and if everyone is good for time continue up to Middle Town. Then back through Calastoga down Silverado Trail and maybe cut back to Pope Valley by ConDamn and then down around the lake again. I will post a route later.

It is all up to how long of drive people want. I am good with it though. Do you want to the bridge or all the way to the coast?
