Thanks!

Re bugs: I carry a spray bottle with diluted detailer (actually Optimum No Rinse) and a few rags and clean the mess on the bumper, windshield and side mirrors when I stop for gas. It's a 5 min cleanup that prevents damage and saves a lot of work later on. There were some bugs on the radiators but not a lot; they are mostly carried by the free aero flow.

beautiful car and great photos.

MORE importantly, did you see any other 911s along the way? any thumbs up or flashing the brights?? i love seeing my 911 peeps out and about, those are my boys.

Thanks for the photos, Tony. You're a great photographer (great eye) and you get to visit such stunning spots!

Thanks! I think I only saw 3 Porsches on the road, a 911 SC, a 996 and a 997.2 C4S - all south of Mendocino. I waived or flashed my lights and received no feedback. OTOH, on the Avenue of the Giants a Corvette C6 waived to me and I waived back.

Thanks Dan! I love your photos too! Re the roads... you know all about these too. As you say, these cars must be driven.

Beautiful pics and car. My aunt and uncle have a place about 5 miles north of Jenna (Jenner?). Been through Mendocino, Russian River, Bodega Bay and that area quite a bit.

ADias,

What a great looking road trip. Love the shots w/ your car. I am really looking forward to my first big trip in my 09S. Was it a one day drive or 2?

With all the severe storms we've had in the midwest I am afraid to go to far w/o checking radar and knowing where I can park in a garage. My previous car a M3 got hail damaged twice and I am kinda jumpy w/ my new ride.

Two-day drive. But it could have been a 3-day drive.

need to kick myself for not driving these roads in my own backyard more often.

Tony, these are great pics. You must have enjoyed accumulating the miles on this drive!
