The Wall is well, a wall, that's on the very top of Grizzly Peak Blvd. near South Park drive and the steam trains in Tilden Park.

Motorcyclists and car folks hang out up there for the view, usually around sunset.

I dunno what the wall is, but i spun my car on redwood rd back in july 2002

If i had more time, i'd do for a drive.

I almost went flying over the 24 Tunnel exit coming off the road above it one night being really stupid.

Luck saved me.

Not skill.

you guys ever take a ride down Canyon Rd, off of Skyline in Oakland (near Redwood Park), ends up in no man's land in between Oakland, Castro Valley and Moraga.

Cool road, but watch for bikers and hippies.

yep I got stopped on Redwood in my VW about 6 months ago because (according to the cop) "the engine sounds like a Porsche engine"

They are hunting car guys up there.

Mines is still one of my favorites! [/B][/QUOTE]


Yes yes yes. Mines is an awesome all day affair (Livermore to Mt Ham)

You guys gotta try 25 from Hollister to highway 198 (between King City and Coalinga)

Hecker Pass is awesome (but short....a bit of a drive for the brief excitement).

Los Gatos-Coalinga Rd is nearly WRC material......dirty and bumpy but hard to beat for flat-out, eyes-dialated, white knuckle fun.
