Bay Area Fun Run in August

[Alvin]

I wanted to get the ball rolling on a fun run for folks in the Bay Area either in August or Sept. I can throw some ideas around but I'd really like for someone else to do all the planning

So, any suggestions on:

1) Destinations
2) routes
3) meeting time/dates?

I'm always down for coastal runs, but I think the East Bay hills, Napa/Sonoma, and even the South(Gilroy/Hollister/Livermore) would be really fun.

Perhaps Dave_Car_Guy would consider doing the Blackhawk / Diablo run again. No threat of rain until October.

I'm available most weekends and would also like someone else to plan it.

Perhaps some time in October? I'm pretty much booked from now till October.

looks like August might be too busy, but I like the ideas above.
breakfast at someplace followed by some driving could work too

[Kurt]

I'm ready. And willing!

[Garm]

Napa/Sonoma! Yes yes yes!

I won't be ready in August (not so secret project) but could do Sept/Oct. run

Unless there's a Roadster for sale up there.

Not sure of any good roads, but I'm down for it! Something with good photo ops.

I can organize something and propose a location, route and timing. Our April Pescadero run worked out pretty well.

What kind of duration and mileage would you guys be interested in?

* a few hours - <100 miles 1 -2 stops along the way to hang out
* 1/2 day - >100 miles - several stops along the way including a bite to eat
* whole day adventure - roll early or meet up along the way with a specific target destinations and timing in mind. lots of stops for food, gas, photos, etc

With some guidelines I can come up w/ some options.

Unless there's a Roadster for sale up there.

Garm, There's always some sort of Roadster for sale up here.

Thank You Mike for volunteering to organize.

We need to get the date ironed out first I think.
After that its pretty much cake..

[RCMike]

Garm, if both our projects are done, I would love to do a caravan and join in..

If we did September I would prefer the weekend of the 8th or 22nd... I could plan a week in the city and go to a Giants game I could probably go other dates too tho. Napa/Sonoma would be closer for those of us in the upstate part of northern California...

Mike, A few hours <100 miles w/bite to eat or (root) beer

Next weekend there is a gig called Wildwoodstock could be a final destination in Saratoga?
