Was still a lot of fun IMO

Perhaps we should avoid Alameda next time =X

Sorry for loosing people, I really couldn't hear jack from my 2way in the front. I heard a few people say to slow down, but after we arrived I heard some people were telling us to speed up.. I need a better radio!

Anyways, thanks for getting this together Alan!

Shoot, Jeff and I were talking to Tommy and we tried to catch you guys. We caught the back of the pack and the GPS told us to go right so we did. You guys went strait. Somehow we passed you. I don't get it. Crazy.

I think 2 subies can make better time than 50 so that might have been part of it.

No doubt, I averaged somewhere around 55mph, floating around 45-60 and avoided changing lanes when coming up to slower drivers for fear of 50 subbies behind me changing along with me.. first time I ever got that kind of gas milage on the STI though

I heard that! that park sucked!. It would've been nicer if it was at Treasure Island or one of the Marinas. We would've stayed nice and cool and had free parking.. The weather was so much nicer once we headed home and hit Berkeley.
