Both drive events added to the 86DRIVE Events calendar.

Love that more people are wanting to plan and initiate weekend drives!

Anyone ever tried this loop?

undefindedt · 04-25-2016, 04:48 PM

I've driven all those including 120 and 49 many many times but never in a contiunous loop in one day.

undefindedt · 04-25-2016, 04:51 PM

Never in a sports car though. Almost always in a truck or rock crawler...few times in Focus and a family style car with friends.

I love that area..I use to hangout in Groveland quite a bit...

Clipdat · 04-25-2016, 04:55 PM

Edit: I'm now seeing that 120 is a major tourist entry point for Yosemite, so might not be the best idea for a good driving round.

undefindedt · 04-25-2016, 04:59 PM

Yes but it's still a fun drive to cruise on with lots of nice areas to stop on between Groveland and Yosemite Valley. None of those highways are 'driving' roads anyway...just cruising around with squad roads..seeing sights and hangin out type of roads.

I'd take my FRS up there during Summer to cruise

Clipdat · 04-25-2016, 05:04 PM

Ok cool, thanks for the feedback. I was looking for some good roads to check out with my buddy in Modesto that has a R1.

Seems like a plan for east bay to meet sac 86 for a epic drive event

undefindedt · 04-25-2016, 07:35 PM
