Oh I tried using manual mode on the trip. I accidentally downshift to 1 and heard a large woooooossssh. I was like oh snap I went to one I didn't mean that it was suppose shift up 3.

@MidLife&luvIt You're missing out!!

nice views!

Fun drive and fantastic views. Thanks @BigFatFlip for planning and leading this one.

It’s a good thing, I think, when at the end of our journey together, the recurring comments are, “when is our next meet?” and “that was too short! I wanted more”. Thanks to everyone who came out.

Man who knew the weather could turn crappy so fast... yesterday it was beautiful and today it's all overcast and rainy! But the forecast looks good for the next weekend again...

OK I threw this together from our Marin DRIVE this weekend ... but it can serve as a teaser of sorts for all the great summertime drives we will continue to have ...

As I mentioned in person to those who attended this weekend's DRIVE, I pretty much intend to go for a DRIVE every Saturday morning this summer as long as my schedule remains free. So although the decision on what route we will run may be up in the air and decided at the last minute (always open to suggestions!), do plan to join us when you can as we will try to run a regular schedule! Lots of opportunities to earn those valuable 86DRIVE stickers on your card.

Great video, almost brought a tear of joy to my eye! I predict it's going to be the feel good hit of the summer, a sure box office smash.

MyRx · 06-24-2013, 12:26 AM

At the end of summer, you should put all those drive videos and make one big movie. RSVP a pizza place and play it on their big screen. Put me down for a copy.

Simpleviet · 06-24-2013, 04:29 PM

The teaser puts a smile on my face. Hell yeah, in search of twisty scenic roads. I'm glad to be apart of this community. My first eventually owned car. I'm enjoying the driving experience more than I ever had with the several cars I've ridden. Of course none were sport cars. This is my base hahaha.

Missed out big time. Someone dumped 7 - 4 week old kittens at my husbands work on Friday. I really thought I was gonna lose 2 of them but they made it. My weekend consisted of taking care of them. Looks like a fantastic drive though. Sorry I missed it.

Clipdat · 06-25-2013, 06:49 PM

Kiddens!!! Post up pics of them in the off-topic thread! lol

Anything going on this Saturday? Annoyed that I missed out on the last drive, looked amazing!

Kamakanani0 · 06-25-2013, 07:53 PM

Hey P, got anymore footage of that awesome section with just the tall grass, smooth pavement? Looks like a British B-road stage rally section? I think it was at ~0:06 in your video.

Really bummed I didn't have my gopro charged for that...

Kamakanani0 · 06-26-2013, 12:17 PM

@PMok, how do you sync the 86 Drive calendar with you personal one? I am trying to sync it and cant seem to figure it out (on my phone at least).

Go online and subscribe to it. You'll get all the events on your calendar. It should be straight forward. Let me know if you need more detailed pointers.
