Thanks for the info Walter!


For anyone interested there will be a few of us meeting up in Blackhawk tomorrow at 6:30 AM for a brisk early morning drive. It should be fun! Sorry, don't mean to hijack your thread.

TIME:
Maybe 7:30 am or so the earlier the better because alot of bikers ride on these roads let me know if you guys are cool with that or what time you want to drive

EDIT:
So the route im debating is this:
Left on hwy 35
Right on La Honda after a quick stop at the 4 corners (Newly paved great high higher speed road)
L onto pescadero road (another newly paved road very fun)
Then either turn around and go back up to the 4 corners then down woodside road (end of drive)
or
Right on hwy 1
Right on tenidis creak road (kinda bumpy but extreamly fun)
Left on hwy 35 end at parking lot where we started

Roster:
Thesnowboarder (Me,nick) ill be in my 90 mazda miata
Apexwagon (mike) 05 wrx wagon
Subarusti8 (calvin) 06 wrx sti
hyphyee 02 aspen white wagon
Rau (walter) 92 impreza L?

I've never met the kid, but my buddly lives off El Camino Real and saw him doing burnouts in the middle of the road with his BOV popping.

If you drive foolishly, eventually something bad will happen. I guess he learned this the hard way.... although by the sounds of it he's blaming it on a 'flat tire'....
