Reviving the Lake Berryessa run

Hey not sure if anyone is doing this anymore. Last time I went was in 2007 and there were a ton of Subies out but my crew from Chico is coming down to meet up with an Evo crew on May 18th (next Satuday) for this cruise.

A local (from Vacaville) has offered to let us hang out afterwards for a BBQ and pool party. If you guys are interested, meet us at the Lagoon off of Pina Adobe road on Saturday. You can check out the facebook event here:

*Actually remembers the fun of one of those events. Too bad I'm older and a family man now in a stocker or I'd consider jumping in on this. FWIW the lake isn't all that lately.[Opinion b/c dirty/gungy funk growing in it worse and worse now.]

Do me a favor, on your guys way down or on the way back into Chico, get some GoPro footage of RollerCoaster Road so peeps out here understand what I am talking about when I mention my Top-10 List of the Best Roads out here.

Roller Coaster road? Are you referring to Newville off of Honeyrun? We just went on a drive there a couple weeks ago! If not, what road are you referring to?

Whichever road I used to drive in and out of the SouthWest side of town.

Best description is coming up I-5, exit @ Bayliss Blue Gum, pretty much East, left on 45, right on Ferry, then left on River Road. If you don't know it by nickname, ask a local or an Alumni.

I may show up for this. Piná Adobe is just down the street and the road to the Lake is pretty much in my back yard.
