So many great ideas... there are lots of great roads here, I can think of at least 10 off the top of my head. Some inspiration here:

Here's what I'm thinking for this weekend.

Saturday. I told myself I am gonna go to the range and re-sight in my rifle. So I will be at the Chabot Gun Club around 10AM and afterwards (around 12PM) maybe cruise a little at Pinehurst and Skyline. Anyone's welcome to join me. I have to go into work at some point though so around 1-2PM I will head to the Peninsula. After a little work I may be up for a drive around the 280 area... 84 and/or Skyline. It's going to be kind of playing it by ear though so if you are interested in joining me, PM me and we'll exchange phone #s. I'll text whoever's interested about where I am and where I am headed next.

Sunday. Yeah Marina's too far to go just to spectate. I'd rather DRIVE! Sounds like Devil's Slide is too inconvenient for some of us this particular weekend, we can do it one of the next few weekends. So let's keep it East Bay this weekend. Meet at say Orinda/24 around 930AM and drive San Pablo Dam Rd/Wildcat? I haven't driven this area in years so if someone knows a good spot to meet up please throw it out. Then maybe take Grizzly Peak/Redwood Rd back down home.

I'm open to adjustments/suggestions too.
