Just did a spirited drive down Pinehurst and Redwood tonight. Car felt great and I had a blast!

Trying to log more miles on these roads so I can eventually become super comfortable with them.

Nice. If anyone up for a drive tomorrow or the day after please hit me up. I'm up for anything. I'm residing in San Jose. Any place worth driving. La Honda, Page Mill, Hwy 1, Bear Creek, Mt Hamilton, Telsa Rd, Mines Rd, Big Basin, and Skyline Blvd, Calavares rd, are are the roads I've driven so far.

Awww man, what time? I was just there about an hour ago! Love the view of the bay (on golflinks) at dusk. Hit me up next time you go

Will do! I honestly didn't even know I was going until I was leaving! Next time I'll make a post for sure.

I honestly wasn't sure what the traffic/bicycle conditions would be like at 6pm on a Thursday. Fortunately there were only a few bikes and minimal traffic.

As a side note I always wonder why I see random SUVs and Corollas up on these roads. Why wouldn't they just be taking the freeway to where they need to go or another more direct route??

maybe they enjoy the scenic route as much as we do or perhaps it beats traffic. who knows. They are majestic aren't they? Shrouded by mystery and as big as a elephant.

Yeah, I think that area is still residential, with some houses here and there, plus in some instances, its the shortest way to Orinda, etc. from the freeway.

Anytime after 11PM on Friday nights most of the roads up on skyline are empty except for a few guys that like to drive really fast.

I wish I could, I could use the time off.

Actually, I'm looking to charter fish on Sat or Sun for Father's Day. So yup, I'm already planning to rise before dawn to get to HMB or Berkeley.

Bummer, guess I'll see you guys at the next drive, which is hopefully when we go to that awesome car museum/cars and coffee in Scotts Valley.
