Here's the edit version.

I've put together two different drives for the weekend of the 17th and the 18th of April 2004.

Both mornings the groups will be meeeting at the Washoe House in North Petaluma (off Stoney Point Rd) @ 10:00-10:15 and leaving at 10:30am

The drive will take about 4-6 hours depending on what day you choose to go.
Saturday is a nice drive that will not be too hard to keep up on.

Sunday is a drive the hell out of your car / try not to crash kind of thing.

15) Follow the road until it ends and turn (left) onto Hwy 1 (south / east) (94.5 miles)

16) Stay on Hwy 1 until we come to the small town of Valley Ford. There we turn (right) onto Valley Ford Rd. (97.9 miles)

Hey, where are all my Subaru friends that said they like doing my drives? I figured i'd have a few more responces by now.

I was thinking about making the Saturday day more of a mellow "drive though the park" kind of thing. While Sunday being the "come on grip, don't fail me now." inspired drive. I'm trying to get my Christina (my wife) to come along on Sat. but the chance of that happening is very slim. And personally i wouldn't want her there on Sun. because she'ld most likely have me sleeping on the coutch that night. (she gets car sick when i go too fast)

how 'bout it

Miles
Richard
Kevin
Paul

Adam

and anyone else i may have left out.
