I've killed several Sundays just driving around for the hell of it without an actual destination, just wandering around using Google maps.

Using Google maps sort of defeats the purpose of driving around. Sometimes fun to explore and get lost.

Best I've found was redwood rd. to pine hurst heading towards Moraga. I took the other turn and ended up in Piedmont (residential area) so using google maps doesn't really give you 100% of the info you need.

Yeah I've planned some solo rides/drives on the weekends, kind of a nice zen thing. Just hit up Google maps and set a destination to and from my street, and just start dragging that purple line all over the place through the hills until I'm happy. Usually I'm satisfied after 2-3 hours, but I've been out for 6+ hours and 300+ miles quite a few times in the car or on the bike.
