I took a quick spin out yesterday out to Turlock Lake straight east of Modesto. I was thinking about our run on Saturday, and about how many routes that there are in the near-valley and foothills direction. Usually without the tourist-y weekender traffic.
I used to hold a run for our Datsun Roadster community during the first week in March, but as the group has aged a bit, there were less and less cars coming out, and it just faded away.
Although I cannot promise anytime soon, I would like to hold a drive sometime in the Central Valley and through the foothills to the east of Modesto. As they all said 17 years ago when I moved here, 'Its only a couple of hours from everything.' Although it is really 15 minutes from nothing, there are some great roads around here, and it is time I re-aquainted myself with some of them.
Any takers? My weekend sched is completely filled until my return from the midwest at the end of June. The only issue is that the temps in the valley start to really climb by then, making the run a bit less fun.
