Heh, no problem man. Drive was good, short, but good. Starbucks chat was good. Then @Simpleviet and I took Calveras Road up to 680, for some extra twisties, before going separate ways. Other than the stupid traffic at the 680 tollway, on the way back, not a bad morning (also gave me an excuse to stop by Chik Fil A in Fairfield for lunch ).

Definitely me, I took a stroll.


Darnit, I typed an entire paragraph of the trip and I accidentally miss-click on my mouse --" went back a page and lost it all.

In short it was fun drive. Met Pwolf for the first time and Bob in a long time. I enjoyed the scenic drive. We talked at Starbucks pass stories and we left our separate ways. Scott and I we drove calaveras rd to go home of course I had a great time. I wanna say its my 2nd time on Calaveras. I don't remember hahaha.

For those that are new and reading. Have fun driving. No one is rushing each other to get to places. Drive it for the thrill and fun factor with safety being priority. No one is pressuring no one. Relax and enjoy and live for another day. RIGHT FOOT FLAT

Note to self.... Word doc.

Too bad the sun didn't come out until later cause I think it would've been a much more scenic drive.

The Calaveras Road drive... lots of bicyclists but rather scenic.

Drove up to the meet today at Serramonte. First time being there. I parked my 86 near the food stand. I walked inside the mall see whats going on. Reason bathroom hahaha. Continuing, I walked out the mall and walked around the food truck area to see if I spotted any. For a while I didn't see any. I decided to cross pass the food trucks cross the other side of the parking lot to see if I could find any. Spotted 1 86 walked towards it and met @Drpepperrules Cool guy. He went to do some errands. I walked back and drove my 86 next to his. I was driving in and out of the parking spot one for re-positioning and just because I want to lol. Took some pictures and met few others that came by. Thank you Tony for the gift. Met Jason from Florida currently working in Cali for now! Josh and Hannah or Hanna, and Wilson. Good to meet you all. Hope I see you guys at one of them drive meets I didn't get anything from the food truck, but they did smell good! mmmm We chatted and chilled. I left around 9pmish. It felt faster going home than driving up there haha. Good Night and peace.

April 19, 2014.

@SLEEPER WRX and I drove on Sierra RD from Piedmont.

We met up at 8AM at the Shell gas station. I was stretching, then Bob arrived. After a small chitchat. We drove up on Sierra cruising at a slower than the speed limit pace and enjoying the scenic views on both sides. There were many stops along the way up. Although there were no one but us, I didn't want to cause traffic at the stops I wanted to stop at. As we take pictures and pausing for a moment to look around. We got to enjoy the view over the city and seeing how high we were at. A wonderful spot to watch the sunrise or sunset. As Bob has seen some. I was persuaded by Bob to do a U-turn to get back down the hill to get that spot to take a picture. Another U-turn we did and off we drove over small and large hills. We took a stop at some point where when you look down on the passenger side all you would see is just air. A mighty big fall and some had no rails The roads were more curvy than others. You got to see cows, horses and deer grazing. I was running up the hill to take a picture of what looks to be a interesting photo of where the branches of the trees and leaves covered both sides and I liked it. Don't know if It came out good or not. I haven't seen the pictures myself yet. We stopped near a park near the end of the drive. Inside this park had volleyball, a place to barbecue, a lake, horses to view, places to hike, and enjoy a good nap if you like. A definite destination for us when we finish the drive or something. Not only that, I was helping Bob out how to get his own threads and upload pictures to start his own adventurers. Overall, I had a great time driving on the road and taking a moment just to get surroundings in. A wonderful spot enjoy the scenic views and perhaps relax yourself. I uploaded 32 photos but I'll place some I like. You may see the rest. down down below.

After looking at the photos.. I definitely gotta clean that bird poop --"
