Dear All Car Lovers:

The Plan:
After lengthy discussions and much foresight, I am proposing a weekly car drive in the Santa Cruz Mountains (followed by optional attendance to a weekly exotic car meet up at Santana Row). This is a car appreciation and car culture event (of course bikes and all forms of vehicles may attend).

The Rules:
- This is not a competitive race.
- No reckless driving, discrimination, or fighting allowed.
- No drugs or alcohol while driving.
- In the mountains, there will always be potholes, bicyclists, animals, and other obstacles to be aware of.
- Please use brake lights in addition to engine braking for maximum driver communication.
- Further driver communication will be arranged through 2 way radio on a common frequency TBD.

The Route:
- Initial Meetup: 8:30AM at Robert’s Market parking lot in Woodside, CA.
- Clutches out at 9:00AM.
- Kings Mountain Road (west).
- Tunitas Creek Road (west).
- Highway 1 (south).
- Stage Road (south).
- Pescadero Road (east).
- Highway 84 (east).
- Break: Alice’s Restaurant a.k.a. “four corners” in Sky Londa.
- Highway 35 (south).
- Highway 9 (east).
- Meet at weekly exotic car meet at Santa Row.

How was this?

 

The drives have been going well. Last week was missed because of a previously organized Mini-cooper drive that took precedence.

The Santana Row exotics meet has been going strong. Last week up to 40 vehicles showed up!

Pics of the SR meet can be found on it's own forum.

 

This week's drive will not take place because of a previously established Mini Cooper drive. If you can get your hands on a Mini, please show up:
