Okay, I have some inner turmoil here. It's 31 degrees outside right now, when I put Datster together 15 years ago I wanted a car without windows, a top or a heater because "this is California" and I was 15 years younger....

I don't know if I have enough jackets, beanies gloves, thermals...... WOW, I sound old!!!!!!!

:oops:

I'm looking forward to seeing the group today, this should be fun.

34 here in boulder creek. Im going to try going up 9 to skyline. If it looks icy I may turn around.

Watch out for black ice under the redwoods and in corners.

Good run today. I'm sure Alvin will have a full report shortly.

Here are a few previews...

Although it was chilly this morning, it was nothing compared to the weather our East Coast snowed-in friends are having. Spring is just around the corner, isn't it?

Big thanks to all that braved the chilly morning. Eric came from Modesto and RCMike drove all the way from Socal to join us!

Loving shot #2 of Alvin's hardtop and rear quarter on the coast road.

and a big hoo-rah to both mike (Iron Butt Award) and Ken Pletcher for the commitment to "topless" and still braving the elements.
(wasn't there a story of many moon ago of Ken driving to a fun run, on the coast, in the rain, in his sailing foulies?)

Great run! Thanks to Rob and Alvin for hosting and promoting this run! I had a great time (save that one stoplight in Saratoga, my bad, oops!) with all the cars and even got to get the FR-S out for its first twisty run!

Great to meet so many new people and drive cars with familiar faces. Way to go iron-bottom, frosty-ears Mike for the journey up and down the Golden State for a fun run!
