You can actually drive to and from dowtown Ukiah using the Cow Mountain access roads
I'll bet my GF's Outback has enough clearance, but we do it all the time in our trucks

Oh, and the Hopland Old Toll Road is AMAZING, plus the lack of traffic and generally smooth dirt turns make for one heck of a good drive...

My own personal brain-child was the "Mt. Hamilton Route 66 Rally"
SAT IMAGE: http://www.supersleepers.com/gallery...amiltonrun.jpg
66 Miles from the base of Alum rock to I-5. Then a nice radiator cool down session to hwy 152, through Gilroy, to Watsonville then on Hwy 1 to Santa Cruz and back to the Bay via Hwy 17 or 9.
That's a 3 hour tour on a Ducati!! Scenic, Challenging, Enduring and FUN! Who's in?
