Might be for me. I’m only a few inches from the ground.
In any case, anyone mind if my little sister brings her 13’ civic? It’s all stock. |

It will be fine. There is a well marked bumpy section at the very beginning of the drive. it is the easily the roughest spot in the whole drive.

Setting expectations for the day
So there are no surprises, I'll talk a bit about how we will run.
The object here is to spend some quality time with friends old and new. Safety will be paramount. This IN NO WAY is a contest. Zero pressure to drive outside of our individual comfort zones. We will follow all posted - white sign - speed limits, especially in the straights. I will check up for all straight sections. Please take all blind corners conservatively. Be ready for anything. To be obvious about our good intentions, we will check up and give a wide berth for bicyclists and pedestrians. We will share the road politely when we encounter other motorists. Most folks, on noticing the action in their rear view, happily pull to the side for us. If they choose not to, so be it. We can always come back another day. It's a beautiful, fun cruise even when parading through corners. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ If you have family-band radios, bring them along. We'll pick a channel at the driver's meeting before we head out. I'm really looking forward to this! It has been way too long.
