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.

MEETING PLACE:
If you go up hwy 92 make a left onto hwy 35 (aka skyline) there is a small parking lot on your immediate left well be meeting there

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
