(There's a section where it's a one way road, but so far I've had no problems with oncoming traffic in that section. Just gotta play it safe haha.)
Damn I haven't been on in a drive in so long, and I've never been on this section of the road so I'm tentatively in for now. Just wish it was a bit earlier, as that would be more agreeable with the gf.

+1 on an earlier start time, may increase my chances of joining since I can be back in time to join the wife for brunch.

I think I've driven that road before. Lots of 2nd gear turns

Edit: Oh nvm, I was thinking of Calaveras Rd that goes along the reservoir

Alright. I'm down for an earlier time. How's 8:30? Depending on the road conditions too. Looks like it's supposed to rain on Saturday.

So about that drive..... It looks like it'll be raining for the entire weekend. Maybe next week when the roads are dry? Haha

Is it weird that I was more stoked for the drive because of the rain?

Either way, I'm down for a drive or meet or both, even more so if the location is closer to the city. If everyone else bails cause of the rain then I'm fine with sleeping in too

Hey! I didn't say anything like that.. putting words in my mouth! Lol. I just enjoy a nice calm rainy day drive, no bicycles and way less traffic. What's wrong with that??
