Discussion for the Next Group Drive
Based on the I saw in the drive last Saturday, it seems to me our S2Kers are craving for more drives. Now it is your chance to post here to tell other people which date and which route you prefer. I will try to find a consensus and post a drive as soon as possible. So post quick and we will have another drive in no time!
Routes:
1) SF Photogenic Group Cruise (well, not a drive but we will get lots of nice pictures. )
2) Mt Tam
3) Hwy 152 from Watsonville to Gilroy (Mt Madonna)
4) Sausalito - Fort Baker - Fort Barry
5) Calaveras Rd near NE San Jose
6) La Honda Rd (from Hwy 1)
7) Other Suggestions?
Dates:
1) 2/23 (Sat)
2) 3/2 (Sat)

Meet in the City, plenty of parking lots off embarcadero. Drive up to Lombard Street and take a group photo stopped on Lombard.
then head over the golden gate (plenty of spaces at the marina to stop if we want) and go over into the marin Headlands (immediate left over the GG bridge).
there's some OK spots to stop along the road up there and take a picture of all the S2000's ABOVE the GG Bridge with SF in the background...
Then continue on down the single lane, one-way road that takes you over to the cliffs by the ocean, maybe grab a Sunset pic.
then head back thru the tunnel Sylvain was talking about and we'll end up in Sausalito, or on rt 101...
thougths??

The consensus seems to be a SF + Lower Marin scenic cruise. Let's jot down all the sightseeing points first. Once I got all the dots, then I can connect them to have a route.
1) Fisherman's Wharf
2) Boardway Tunnel
3) Lombard St
4) Palace of Fine Arts
5) Castro St
6) Chinatown gate at Bush/Grant
7) Twin Peaks
8) GG bridge
9) Sausalito Vista Pt
10) Fort Baker Fort Barry Tunnel (sylvainsf's fav tunnel)
11) Other notable places I missed?
Where is the parking lot off embarcadero? Near Embarcadero Center? Good enough for 20+ S2Ks?
I suggest we end the drive at Sausalito. Anyone know any good restaurant there?
Paul (passleft) suggested a late afternoon drive such that we may be able to catch the sunset and take some gorgeous pictures by the coast. Do you people prefer late morning (like last time) or late afternoon?

My dad was a cab driver in SF for many years, and if this itinerary sounds good, I can come up with a detailed course description which will be very easy to follow. Not to mention I'll print out enough copies for everyone this time . No point in having a spirited group for a drive like this, it will be hard enough keeping one group together to hit all these spots.
