well, I woke up late, tweaked a few things on the car, and then told the wife I was gonna go out for some buffalo wings. Took the long way to get those wings...


Palomares Rd to Sunol. Stop at Sunol Super to get some 94 octane mixed into my 1/3 tank of 91. 84 to Mines Rd and out to the Junction Cafe. Stopped for a soda at the Junction. Back to Livermore and on a whim, took Tesla Rd all the way out to 5/580. Then 580 back thru Altamont Pass and finally, stopped in Dublin to get some spicy wings. What a beautiful day out on the road.

oh, and I ran into a blue S2000 with black wheels (great taste!) that gave me the thumbs up... I was stuck behind a slow SUV, and he was stuck behind two cars going the other way. I gave him a wave too.

@eklipz98, maybe one of your buddies?

Do you keep your camera always rolling? That was one split second shot! But nice one

ha, I would have taken Patterson Pass back from 580 too if I had more time, but I had promised to be back with dinner.

Don't think I can cut out of work mid-day for a drive... maybe in the evening though.

a snippet of yesterday's Mines Rd DRIVE.
I had the camera mounted on the pass side so I could see how close to the right edge I was getting.
