Imgur, or just use the "Manage Attachments" button to attach/upload them into the post itself, instead of hosting on an external site.

Thanks for all the nice photos, Jeremy!

Imgur or maybe even Flickr. I know Flickr is more of a pain to get the actual image URLs for embedding, but I don't think it compresses/loses quality as much as other sites.

Was thinking of doing the same drive or trying hwy 9 for the first time myself tomorrow morning. Would be nice after a long work week. Unfortunately no ideas on the clams for ya, but hope you find something!

Went on another drive today!

Unfortunately I earned my first pebble/something impact on the windshield:

https://imgur.com/a/vLcBs

I think in comparison to last week, the road was definitely drier today but there was a ton of debris. Lots of tree stuff lying around (small branches/shrubbery) and dirt in areas (looked like a couple potential rock slides to the sides of the roads). Sure one of those two things caused the windshield impact. Le sigh.

Decided to try 9 to 35 this time since I'd never done those roads before, and then on to Alice's to 84, and then to Pescadero via Pescadero Creek Rd.

Had a great time. Getting to Alice's by about 8:15am and leaving by 8:30AM seems to nearly guarantee an empty 84/Pescadero Creek Rd. both ways, which makes it even more enjoyable.

A couple photos:





And some more:

I also went 9 - Skyline to Alices. Then went 84 to 1 to pacifica. Roads were less slippery than last week. What a beautiful day. 74° in Pacifica! Car ran awesome with the new SC.
