Thanks B! Sorry I can't join on this drive, but if you guys end up stopping for breakfast in Orinda I might be able to catch you guys there.

** This is still a STARS-earning DRIVE so be sure to check in with @BigFatFlip at the end of the drive to get your card punched. **

Yes, please bring your 86Drive cards if you would like to earn a STAR for the end of season raffle (If you don't have a card, I also have those). Also bring walkie talkies if you have them, I usually call out any turns we make and any hazards ahead.

For those who want to purchase shirts, you will have to wait for PMok at the end of the drive.

I think many of us use the 2 packs from walmart (motorola or cobra). Get something with a 25+ range and hope it works for .5 miles when tou cant see the guy in front of you anymore lol

^This lol. I've had fancier rechargable ones that have died on me and now just keep a pair of cheap walmart ones in the trunk with some AA batteries. Unlike the Mines rd. run, there will be quite a few turns along the way and a good chance of loosing people, so I will be going extra slow to make sure we get everyone. If we get separated, you know the final destination (Village Inn Cafe in Orinda) and can just meet us there.

Posting from The Junction. I left Alameda at 8am and did grizzly peak, pinehurst, redwood, palomares, and mines.

Mines was beautiful and clear of traffic. Surprised I didnt run into you guys on redwood!

What time were you on Pinehurst? We skipped Pinehurst...hit the right to go up it around 8:20-8:25 I think. We went up Redwood onto Skyline instead
