This wednesday at the summit at 6:00 or the deli at 5:00 eh? Provided stuff doesn't blow up at work again I think i can make it. I assume if I go and scroll through the pages again I'll find the directions.

 

[Natey]

I'm not sure how to get to the deli, but...
Here's some simplified directions to the summit:


880-->85--->Saratoga Blvd--->Hwy 9--->summit

 

[DrPhill]

[DrPhill]

[Natey]

(hmm) What did you think of Jamison Creek Rd? Too steep and bumpy?

 

[DrPhill]

well im okay with driving uphill on it but there no way im going downhill!! too steep!!!!!

 

[Natey]

Yeah, The smell of roasting brake pads. Yuk!


We could take the same route, except shorten it up a little...

 

[DrPhill]

Sup guys.
Any of you ever drive up Mt Hamilton in San Jose and down 130 on the other side to Livermore? This was one of my favorites when I had my Miata. I just took this route on Friday with the MSP for the first time. I couldnt take the turns as fast as the Miata could but it was still a blast. We're talking 2 straight hours of twisties!
