@overlookedx and I got separated since I had to pull over after noticing my trunk was open We continued down the route but somehow ended back by Alice's on woodside Funny enough, I was following a very similar E36 (same color and everything) so for a moment there, I thought we were going the right way, until it pulled over and it was some lady driving it We both just continued towards the east bay. Glad to hear the E36 didn't get stranded. Lets do this again soon.

sounds like you made a left at the stop sign where we made a right... you ended up going back to La Honda and to Alice's. The rest of us continued on Alpine towards Page Mill. I waited at the gas station for @BRZkitty to finish filling up, but I knew the route so we came up on the wounded E36 on Alpine. Sorry we parted ways with some of you without a proper farewell, but yup till the next time...

Ah ok, I didn't know what you were talking about when you pulled over and said we went the wrong direction at the stop sign. I thought we were all going back to Alice's and going home that way, guess I wasn't paying attention when Page Mill was mentioned.

Funny that you followed me all the way to the east bay, bet you weren't expecting to do that. And that we saw a twin (from Idaho?) on the way there. Glad I headed over to east bay when I did, got there just in time for an early lunch.

Thanks @SC David for organizing, was a perfect Saturday morning drive with a great group of people, and good pastries! Too bad they didn't have those apple fritters anymore lol.

Yes. That was a great road into and out of Pescadero. I will definitely be doing that again as soon as possible. Its hard to beat that feeling of being on the coast in the morning! Thanks David.

Thanks for arranging the drive. You took off when we got to Stage... very nice. Glad I stayed back to get gas, since we ended rolling up on the E36. Thanks again, look forward to the next drive Was nice meeting new people, and seeing the familiar
